 In this post, I will write about the presentations that my class had to do. We all picked sections of the book "Comm6 Speech Communication" by Deanna D. Sellnow. All of us got into groups of three and had to choose either chapter three, nine, or ten. My group chose chapter ten. 


One of the few main points of our chapter ten, was leadership that focuses on how to successfully improve guide and organize a group. We first started with the styles of leadership, later, one of my classmates in my group explained on how to make meetings successful for the ones who participate and those who are the audience. Finally, I was the one who presented the written, oral, and virtual formats of presenting in a group and how you can choose either one to use to communicate with your audience.

However, we weren't the first group to present. The ones who actually presented were in group one and they presented chapter three. They presented about Intercultural Communication and it focused on different cultures and their interactions. They also explained how co-cultures, culture identity, sexual orientations, race & ethnicity, population, sex & gender, religion, all influence in the way people express themselves.

The second group to present, presented chapter nine. They talked about the importance of communication in groups, which is really important because if you don't talk to your classmates about what you're going to do in your presentation as a team, then you won't be as successful with it. Slides may be done wrong, not many will agree with the template one's using. If no group presenting anything without talking it out will have consequences like arguing as to why one isn't doing what the other agrees on. Therefore, the teamwork in a group will not go well.


             I believe that all my classmates did a very good job presenting. They seem to have knowledge on their topic that they chose to present on. Some people kept eye contact and some didn't with their audience but we all know that they did their best presenting as a group.

      The initial group to present discussed chapter 3, which is centered on intercultural communication. This chapter delved into the dynamics of communication between diverse cultures, emphasizing how subtle distinctions in beliefs and traditions can pose challenges but are not insurmountable. It highlighted the potential difficulties, including anxiety, that may arise during intercultural communication but reassured readers that such feelings are normal and shouldn't be feared. The chapter also addressed barriers like the belief in cultural superiority and the lack of understanding about others' ways of life.      Our classmates executed an excellent presentation, ensuring a clear comprehension of the material. They skillfully navigated the complexities of communicating with individuals from different cultures, acknowledging the potential hurdles both parties might encounter. While there was a hint of initial nervousness at the beginning of the pres...

BLOG POST #2

                                                                         BLOG POST #2       For this activity, presentation, assignment, or whatever you want to call it, I had the pleasure of experiencing an engaging and informative session. All three groups managed to captivate my attention and provide valuable insights on their respective topics. Each group brought something unique to the table, and I'm excited to share my thoughts on their performances. First, let's talk about Group 1, which also happens to be my group. I must say, I'm proud of our collective effort. We delivered a presentation that was not only efficient but also engaging and educational. It's not every day that a group project goes so smoothly, and I genuinely believe that this was one was better than the last presenta...

     In post number two, I will write about the experience I had after watching, listening, and participating on the presentations. The overall theme was about happiness and each group had a subtopic to show. Group 1 presented Self Care, Group 2 presented Pay It Forward, and Group 3 presented Good Eating. Everyone had to discuss and search about their selecting and make it overall related with happiness, showing their benefits, their disadvantages, examples, and their relations.     Group 1 gave us a speech with a vast majority of ways to self-care, which is to maintain their health physically and mentally stable. The showing of setting goals for someone to act are inspiring and helpful to consider the ways to act. They also put several advises on the issues of dealing with the sleep and its issues. I also learned that self care is not always a thing that must rely only with the use of money, instead, there are ways to not have to waste your earning for your own...
