To begin, I must say that I was extremely impressed by the quality of the presentations. My peers did an excellent job explaining infrastructure and illustrating various examples of the theme. Everyone appears to be aware of the importance of infrastructure and its objectives. Every task necessitates group communication, of course. Communication is critical to success.
I was nervous because I was the first one in my group to present, but the more I talked about infrastructure, the less nervous I became. Everyday life relies heavily on infrastructure. To name just some, examples of infrastructure include: public transportation systems; communication networks; waste management; sewage; water supply and resources; waste removal and storage; hazardous materials; schools; housing; health care; education and training; social housing programs; police; courts; and other systems for public safety; sewage; water; and electric power. Everything is essentially infrastructure, and the list could go on.
Many aspects of infrastructure are unknown to us because we are not aware of the circumstances in which infrastructure is involved. In this theme project, I learned that there are a great deal of urgent improvements that need to be made around the globe. Due to the lack of attention to certain objectives, tragic events occur as a result of infrastructure failures. The world's priorities are jumbled, and they must be straightened out immediately.
Overall, I believe we were able to grasp the infrastructural aspects of our presentation and address them. As a result of the group's presentation, I'm more open-minded about infrastructure as a whole. I had no idea what infrastructure was, and I'm grateful that I now understand it.
Group 2's talk on gender inequality was excellent. I learned a lot from it. That they used first-person accounts to illustrate the issue of gender inequality was particularly effective. A video of them interviewing the individual would have been more effective than a written statement. I appreciate the way they described how men and women in the real world actually behave. As a woman, I believe that men and women are treated differently. In general, we are subjected to more harassment and other forms of unfairness.
My entire life, I was taught that women take care of the house and men take care of the yard because I was the only girl in my family except my mother. In my opinion, this was a violation of my childhood because I had so much responsibility. At the age of sixteen, I finally decided to stop doing the laundry and cleaning for my family on a daily basis. To say that I was worn out from having to clean up after everyone all day would be an understatement.
All in all, I found their presentation to be very instructive and simple to follow. Inequality between men and women is an issue that affects everyone on a daily basis. Knowing what is happening around you is a good thing, and group 2 conveyed that message. After they put their theme project together, they proved to be a good team.
I really enjoyed the presentation given by group 3, however I think it could have been better arranged and included more information about climate change. The examples and visuals they used were interesting, but more information about climate change was needed. Maybe we should think about what resources we can use to help climate change.
However, as a whole, they did a decent job outlining the causes of climate change. Much about climate change remains obscure, and learning more about it is always beneficial. There are certain things over which we have no influence, but there are other things that we can influence in order to improve the environment around us.
Each group did an excellent job, and I like how everyone is working together to finish their duties. This lesson is a lot of fun, and it's really helped me broaden my perspective on a number of subjects. So far, I've had nothing but positive things to say about it.
Very interesting realization you camn to at 16. Very nice post!
