Notes:

I have performed a presentation in front of the class we have been given feeedback from the teacher. The feedback given has helped me to be more prepared when planning presentations and to be more confident when speaking in front of people.

I took part in a group discussion in which we had to order sticky notes about computers in the order we thought they should go in. after we had recorded the discussion we then went into another group and I had to convince the other members of the group that my order was the best.






PDP - Group Work Skills

Today we have worked in a group to create a timeline of communcation devices. I felt that this went really well. I actually created the timeline, Lauren wriote down the different ways of communicating with people and Tom researched when the different typesof communication devices came about. Everybody in the group did work relating to the task. I think that it could have been better if I worked with people who  wouldn't normally.
