      My personal thoughts on group's one presentation, group one was the first group to present with no prior knowledge to the assignment and because they had no reference to go off of, I believe that their  presentation because of that reason is very extraordinary, it's well put has a nice theme to it, the group members where also attentive and and responsive. They show great group participation and coherency, there slides as well where very put together and the theme matched the topic of intercultural communication. I wish the first slide could have shown the group members names. The first slide was very simple and clean it had a man waving and was very welcoming, the second slide about culture and communication as very informative however I think it lacked pictures and more imagery which I believe the assignment was more based about. The slide talked about and defined Culture, Values, Ideal values, Real values, Intercultural communication, and lastly it also discussed Culture shock. The third slide had more pictures which I enjoyed it talked about Dominant cultures, Co cultures, and also Cultural identity. This slide was a bit unorganized but had a nice theme despite the design flaw. The fourth and fifth slide I believe was perfect I really enjoyed it, had a good amount of pictures and explanation. The sixth slide with code switching I believe she explained very fell and at this point she was a little more comfortable speaking I believe and was more calm. The seventh slide about cultural identity was great however there was a space in the bottom left I think would fit a picture perfectly. The next couple slides had a weird pause because a member didn't have their mic set up properly which is ok but, in these presentations its vital you check your mic and camera are working. Her slides where on ethnicity (which i believe was great she talked confidently and had a lot of information for the viewers to process as well as examples). The next slides where on sex and gender, and sexual orientation  which was presented very well. The next slides on religion and religious prejudice, I wish would have followed the theme but they were good slides overall with good examples of pictures as well. This paragraph is getting a little lengthy but as you can see the prestation was very well put together, one thing I wish the group would have organized more is the amount of work per student and the amount of pictures per slide. overall I love this presentation it is my favorite and has lots of videos. 

      My personal opinion on group two's assignment is that Kevin the group leader is amazing the best group leader I've seen in a lot of classes, he was very attentive and asked a lot of questions, props to him a lot, this group was about communicating in groups first things first the theme in this group is also beautiful i feel like this group compared to the first one was designed and structured better, the first couple slides does not have many pictures, after the first slides there was an internet trouble on the moderator part so there was a switch in screen sharing, it has been happening all day that day and it is uncontrollable so I completely understand. I do wish there was more pictures and colors on some of the slides and as good as the formatting and design is a PowerPoint without pictures isn't a PowerPoint. That is the biggest problem I have found with this group presentation however this PowerPoint was still amazing and over met the requirements. I really liked the fact that they went over the slides and what they should talk about for each slide. The slides are again very well put together just like all the other assignments. I think there was a big competition on who has the best theme. I really liked that this group put the names of the participants on each of the slides, it organizes the presentation and makes it easier to grade as well. This group has a lot of videos and ii really enjoyed that everyone split the work evenly. 

 

My personal opinion on group three is a little hard to give since group three is my group and I really love how this assignment came out for us. My group is an amazing group to work with everyone does there work plus a little more and makes it really fun too. we started all off by picking a group leader and then separating the work evenly amongst all of us, which was a little more difficult since our group was short by a few people. Overall i loved our presentation I wish we could have had more videos. And i really enjoyed the fact we had all the participants names in the first slide and the theme in general in just wonderfully aesthetic. Tyler shared the slide for our class, thank you Tyler. And we also have the names of all of the group members in each slide however I do wish that they all would've put in the same place. Our PowerPoint was on group leadership and problem solving. I also wish that we could add a bit more of a stylistic approach to the pictures added but we had lots of pictures which I believe is the most important part of a PowerPoint presentation like ours. Overall I believe that our PowerPoint was amazing and that working with my classmates was very fun since they where very supportive and quick with the tasks at hand. My group members did not leave anything to the last second and we did all of our work plus some, again however I do wish we would have included more videos and less technical problems like how we did. Thank you everyone I my group you guys are the best. And to wrap things up i believe every group had there pros and cons with there presentation however all groups did amazing.
