July 20

Today we were at CSC for the day. We went through our powerpoint in Kelli's rooom. It took a total of about 18 minutes all together. We had to make a few minor changes to the powerpoint to get everything running smoothly but overall its a good presentation. We have mastered the clicking! =]

Monday Morning Get-Together

Today we met at CSC and went over the PowerPoint as a whole show. We went over it for comments and we received a rubric over what a presentation should look like. It outlines organization, subject knowledge, media, mechanics, elocution. We are striving for a 7-8 in all categories which is the best you can score. We have decided that we will stand with 2 on either side of the screen and click for each other so we do not have to toss the clicker across the aisle. While sitting in the lounge we went over the clicking sequence and I will be clicking Justin's slides.

July 17th

Today we discussed the powerpoint more. I wanted to add another slide in my part that has the different types of unemployment. We also added the quotes to the divider pages. We are going to meet monday morning at 9 am at csc to go over the powerpoint more.

We have been discussing the presentation. A few changes were made to the PowerPoint. I feel we should have one more expert opinion in the presentation. I feel we should have more than one point of view on how to end the recession. The one expert opinion we have only involves banking and how banks can get us out. I feel we should have something about how to fix the unemployment and how inflation can be controlled and reduced in the countries with inflation. We are going to practice our presentation Monday at CSC.

Friday Discussion

We changed some more things today. Kendra added a slide for types of unemployment. I added the words of the quotes onto new slides to act as a cue. We also talked about public speeking and we are meeting Monday morning at 9 A.M. to go over this presentation.

today yet again we discussed the presentation. we debated whether or not to add more expert opinions and eventually decided that it would be unnecessary. we then made one more run through the powerpoint to find any parts that would need to be changed due to errors or to flow better with the oral part of the presentation. and we decided to meet at sandburg monday morning for one last practice before the actual presentation monday
