You guys had a lot of interesting facts you did well with presenting and I enjoyed learning about Malcom X.
ReplyDeleteThe only thing that I have to say that you could work on would be maybe have the speaking roles laid out a little better, it seemed like you were talking over each other. Other than that great job.
1 You had plenty of information for your presentation as well as energy. I didn't realize that Malcolm was a product of his environment of violence. What a rough start to a life.
ReplyDelete2 I would ask that you clarity your points, the presentation was a little jumpy.
1. You guys did a really good job researching and presenting facts about Malcolm X that I didn't know.
ReplyDelete2. It didn't seem like you guys were totally prepared today, maybe if you guys had run through it once or twice before hand it might had gone a little more smoothly, but other than that, well done.
1. I think that your presentation was very informative and was unaware of many things that you spoke about such as how his father was killed yet it was said to be an "accident"
ReplyDelete2. My only critique would be your heavy use of filler words such as "umm."
1. The best thing about the presentation was how informative it was when discussing how he came to be the Malcolm X that he was during the Civil Rights Movement, it provided a good amount of things to pick at and analyze on why he catered more to violence as a speaker. Not to mention how he changed as a character just before his death by assassination. If there was anything I learned from this presentation that I did not know of before, it would have to be his childhood and how much Malcolm went through when he resided in Omaha. It now gave me a clearer picture to why Malcolm X spoke more about taking action.
ReplyDelete2. My critique about this was that the presentation lacked polish, it could have gone better when discussing some of the factors that played into Malcolm X's life. I don't have any other problems with the presentation.
1.) Overall I think your presentation was really informative and gave me a good view of who Malcolm X was and what he did. I really liked the timeline you guys had, it really helped the presentation.
ReplyDelete2.) The only criticism that I have was that you guys talked over each other a lot, so maybe next time just plan the speaking roles out more. Another thing is that there wasn't much comparison and talking of how he affected the civil rights movement. Other than that, it was great!
1. Well put guys. Your slides in my opinion were to my liking and provided good information. You guys were informative as well!
ReplyDelete2. Other than the technical difficulties in the beginning, you guys did good.
You guys had a very informative presentation. It was filled with a lot of information I didn't know so I learned a lot. There are a couple things that I think could have went better: you guys talked over each other a lot so a little more practicing the speaking part and the technical difficulties but other than that loved your presentation.
ReplyDeleteI felt the whole presentation was very specific and had great detail all the way through his life for the most part. The only thing i didn't like is that I felt you wrapped it up the presentation fast after he was assassinated.
ReplyDelete1. Very informative presentation. I liked how you guys showed how all the odds were stacked against his favor in almost every aspect of his life. It seemed like both of you knew a good amount of info about Malcolm X.
ReplyDelete2. A little more practice would have benefitted the presentation greatly. It seemed like you guys were a little unsure about who was going to say what.
I really enjoyed how your group chose to use a timeline of your presentation to show Malcolm's earlier life and everything he went through.
ReplyDeleteIf I had to pick something to critique to make the presentation better I would add more information about his political ideals and what his goals for the organization were.
1. I really enjoyed your presentation. I did not know that Malcolm X was more on the violent side of the civil rights. I had always thought that he was peaceful. I thought the slides were organized very well.
ReplyDelete2. The only thing I would say is maybe practice a little more next time. I would also liked to understand his political ides.
You guys did a very good job expressing how he once was violent, and then after doing some soul searching he decided that violence doesn't help all the time. My recommendation would be to maybe explain his political beliefs a little more.
ReplyDelete1) You did a very good job at talking about the technical details of Malcolm X. I didn't know his last name was actually "Little."
ReplyDelete2) One thing to improve is to reduce the number of times you say "um." Your compare and contrast was also a bit unclear.
I think the slides used were effective and a strong point of your presentation. My critique of this would be to expand more on Malcolm X's changed view point after he found what he thought was the "real islam" when he made his journey to mecca and how it significantly changed his life and how he saw things. I think you really emphasized the violent part of his life and emphasized how he was the opposite of MLK and not enough of his changed view points.
ReplyDeleteI think that you guys really did a great job covering the history of his childhood. It really made it easy to see why he had such a strong view about African American superiority. With that being said, I would have been curious to know a little more about some of the violence he took part in.
ReplyDeleteYou guys did a great job describing why he was iconic, and talking about his childhood. It helped to know his background to see why he might have developed the ideals he did.
ReplyDeleteOne thing I noticed was that you jumped right in to facts about his childhood without explaining who he was or why he was important. I think if you had had a longer intro, it would have been easier to follow.
I think your presentation definitely was informative about his early life which I had never heard before and was very interesting but it seems you guys left out some very important facts or information linking him to civil rights and his comparison to MLk. I think those facts would have strengthened your presentation.
ReplyDelete1) I enjoyed the timeline you guys put on your slides. It really cleared up confusion that could've been had about when such thing happened when. You guys had great facts. I had not known that his mother was sent to a mental institution after his father was found dead.
ReplyDelete2) I feel that if you guys would have practiced together a few more times, it would've made the delivery more smooth. But over all, great presentation!
