Final Presentation Prep

After discussing our outline all five of us spilt up the outline equally. We are to develop our presentation over Thanksgiving Break. I am in the middle of developing the Benefits for Circle K and the Benefits for the Community. I am also putting the videos for our presentation onto the slides. After this break, we are all going to collaborate and put our slides together and then finalize our presentation. It is all hopefully going to come together and we should be able to make a 40 to 45 minute presentation.

Today in class our group discussed and came up with an outline for our final presentation. We talked about our entire presentation from the introduction to the conclusion. We talked about the challenges that we faced throughout the project and inprovments that could have been made. We will give the details to those things in our final project. We set up a powerpoint as well today and plan on adding information as we get closer to our day to present. We also plan on having a lot of pictures of our cans and videos to go along with our presentaion. I would say that we are off to a good start.

Final Presentation

This past Friday, my group and I discussed what we are planning for our final presentation. We first looked at the requirements needed for the final presentation. After review of the requirements, we collaborated as a group and discussed what we would like to do. We made a short skeleton of our final presentation. On Monday we are planning on putting a PowerPoint together before the Thanksgiving Weekend.

Creativity Workshops

This past week was very interesting and fun in our Com 320 class. I thought the creativity workshops were fun and actually taught us how to handle small groups and give them a specific activity to do. It made me feel like I was a manager for a small group. It was good practice for my future career. My future career will hopefully by a manager/technical director for feature film industry or a popular game company.

Doing these activities helped me learn how to better manage others in small groups. It also gave me a first hand perspective on how I act within a small group when given a certain activitiy to do.

The Event - Purdue Cirlce K Can-Petition



The Purdue Circle K Can-Petition took place this past Friday. It was at Class of 1950 on the second floor lobby. We had four different groups part take in the event. Two Com 320 groups - from our class, a fraternity, and Com 320 Boilermakers - my group.
The event went smoothly in my eyes. We started at 9am and ended early, 12:30pm. All the groups that did the competition completed their structures in the early morning. While the event was going on, we had Dustin taking pictures of all the structures. They are up above. We are currently having Purdue Circle K judge the photos and hopefully by Monday we can reward the winners with their prizes (donuts)!
I just wanted to thank all who came out and helped out with our event and to my team. I really appreciated it.
