Group Presentations

To be honest, the groups in our cohorts were really unorganized. Not saying the individual groups were unorganized, but there were groups in our cohort who were not supposed to be in our cohort so I did not get to see them present. On the day of my group presentation, my group presented and the only group there to present after us asked that we not stay and watch their presentation so I did not get to view any presentations in my cohort. In the beginning, I actually did not appreciate this project. I didn't want to work with a group or have to do extra work. I was just being lazy, but after actually meeting with my group and getting to know each of my group members, each of them I had never met before, I became engaged in the project. I don't think the point of the project was to simply present information,but in reality we acted out what we were trying to present. The members of my group and I took on a communal responsibility and took knowledge we already knew and transformed into information that those who saw our presentation might not have known. Overall, I appreciate Freshman Seminar as a whole. Although some Tuesday mornings I didn't want to come to class, every week I was, as Dr. Gbadagesin says," In for a treat".
