Group 3 Members: Shah, Ines, Pablo, Katie, Elijah (and Welmin as contributor)

Secretary: Katie

1. Presenter: Ines, Standard 7

Ines presented in a meeting with just Katie, who got the same advice from Prof. Poirier to do the conditional test first. Then we would know that it was absolute convergence right away! And we would save some time and work. 

Feedback: Ines is really good with all the terms and math vocab. Well organized and clear!

2. Presenter: Pablo, Standard 4

Pablo presented with Ines and Katie. He worked out the problem on whiteboard. We got to see how his mind works!

Feedback: It was cool seeing the problem get worked out in real time. Pablo had nice tricks and reminders to help him in the process and save time in writing out the whole problem. 

3. Presenter: Katie, Standard 7

Katie presented to Ines, Pablo and Welmin. Like Ines, had an absolute convergence so used an extra step but still got the same solution. 

Feedback: Katie went through the problem really quickly, but still made it understandable. Katie was clear, and work was neat. 

4. Presenter: Welmin, Standard 8

Welmin presented to Pablo and Katie. There was a mix up with the groups, but he still presented and did a great job. We did not get a screenshot. 

Feedback: Welmin presented what he said was an easy problem, but it was his easy understanding and explanation that made it easy.

5. Discussion:

     A. What makes a good presentation?

  • Have every step written down.
  • Write neatly and clearly for everyone to understand (different colors help!) or whatever helps it to walk through/describe easier. 

B. How can you prepare to give a good presentation?

  • Practice.
  • Know why you’re doing each step and how to describe it.
  • Have separate notes or prompts to help you remember the steps.
