What?
What was the activity? The activity involved creating a graph from data we collected as a group and then presenting our findings to the class. We worked together to gather information, organize it into a graph, and deliver a presentation explaining our results to everyone.
What did you do? We designed a survey to collect information from students, aiming to reach around 50 people. After gathering the responses, we worked as a team to turn the raw data into a clear graph. Finally, we prepared a presentation to show our findings and practiced delivering it confidently in front of an audience.
What were the learning intentions? The main goal of this activity was to improve our presentation skills. We focused on learning how to present clearly and professionally, organize our thoughts, and communicate with our audience effectively.
What was the most challenging part of this activity? Why? How did you solve it? The most difficult part was collecting enough responses for the graph because we needed information from about 50 students, which was hard to get. To solve this, everyone in our team took responsibility for surveying as many students as possible. By splitting up and working together, we managed to gather enough data for a meaningful graph.

How will you do better next time? To improve for next time, I will make sure I speak more slowly and carefully so that I don’t accidentally spit when I present. I’ll also practice my delivery to ensure I am even more professional next time I speak in public.
