Reflection Points (give a brief answer in a paragraph or less ):

1. How well did you prepare for this presentation?

 I prepared this two weeks before today meaning I've been working on it since the 3rd of February compiling things together and research and stuff. Though starting quiet early, I only started practicing really hard on my speech and time and everything since the 11th of february. My group number is seven so that is pretty lucky for me not to have my presentation on Monday last week. I admit I was slacking off. 

2. Are you satisfied with your performance?

 Yes. I think have deeper thinking and information now ever since my first presentation last semester and I was pretty satisfied including the fact that back then, I took everything easy - it didn't go to well. Until The minute I realized that snoozing off is completely wrong, I started rising up and slowly progressing to be better until It is today; my presentation isn't perfect nor the best, but for me this is satisfactory.

3. What can you do better next time?

 I said this evertime but this time I seriously need to stop. I need to remind myself everytime that a ppt isn't something only I should understand, everyone else should too. In today's case, It was too messy all around with colors, just back then when i started making this, I thought it is all about being colorful and attracting people's attention to my slides, But now that I'm into it, I started to think that maybe they dont understand my slides because the information is all over the place and adding the fact that my voice isn't best when I'm speaking in front of the whole class-it's just ridiculous. next time, I'll make my slides with just simple bullet points and real pictures and illustrations everyone should understand. 

4. What did you do really well this time?

 I put keywords in my slides and explain what those have the impact to word war 1. Usually, i'm one of those people who just memorized everything and understand what I have in my slides but pretty much just repeating what there is in the slides. So I changed the way I do it and tried my best to make people understand what I'm saying (even though the ppt is a chaos). I tried my best to be on time but turns out time can't just wait for me.  

5. What things do you know REALLY WELL as a result of this activity?

 I remembered exactly how nationalism, imperialism, militarism, and all that jizz have an impact towards almost everything that's happening in WWI. There are many other causes though and they are still debating for it. I again, have an extra knowledge to keep for life and smile for the upcoming history exam. (not that simple though, I'll probably forget some dates.) I know well how to grade people and depend my study on the bloom's taxtonomy cause it is really helping me out. I honestly never took that seriously until I found out how useful it is.
