With the presentations that were presented, I had a better experience of where I can improve. I looked at my slides to much when I knew what I was talking about. Just that I am a terrible presenter, even with people I know around, I'll have a tendency to either stutter or speak too fast. Most of the people that presented took a good amount of time to present they had their details and facts ready, some of which weren't on the slides. All the presentations looked good had lots of pictures and flowed with the information presented. Not that many people looked at their slides whilst presenting so it can be assumed that people actually took there time to review there slides before the presentation.  But some didn't talk so loud that the entire room can hear. Some didn't make full eye contact with the audience.

The topic I have chosen to research is of Electric cars. My research question is are electric cars good for the environment and the economy. By making electric cars we can help reduce gas emissions, lessen the amount of imported of electric cars from other countries, and open up more jobs in the country. I chose this topic because I see many car manufactures now making strives to make an electric car. I personally want to see more done, as someone who loves cars, I would rather see more electric cars on the road, rather than gas powered engines. Since cars have come around the amount of CO2 has increased drastically.  CO2 is a greenhouse gas that is one of the most dangerous gases released from burning petrol. Greenhouse gases are causing global warming, which is very bad for the environment. Recently the temperature of the Earth has increased, and ocean levels have risen. The audience I am trying to reach are parents, teens, young adults, and car manufactures. When parents a

The story written by Gerald Jones "Violent media is good for kids" he attempts to prove that violent media helps children cope with feelings they find difficult to control. Jones also believes that violent media has a positive influence on children because "Through immersion in imaginary combat and identification with a violent protagonist, children engage the rage they’ve stifled, come to fear it less, and become more capable of utilizing it against life’s challenges.". Jones makes some good points. For example, he says that "The dual-identity concept at the heart of many superhero stories helps kids negotiate the conflicts between the inner self and the public self as they work through the early stages of socialization.". However, an attempt to prove this shouldn't be "We’ve found that every aspect of even the trashiest pop-culture story can have its own developmental function." as we know all cultures try to develop. All in all, to t

On the first video I watched, Sarah Sanders tended to just go around the question and not answer directly.  http://insider.foxnews.com/2017/10/26/sarah-sanders-white-house-believes-muellers-trump-russia-will-be-closed-soon  The second video all she would talk about is showing support to President Trump, but not talk about the wrongs that he has done. She would only targeted Clinton. http://insider.foxnews.com/2017/10/31/tomi-lahrens-final-thoughts-russia-probe-corrupt-politicians-wasting-our-time-and-money   The third video what they did to throw a spin was saying that George Papadopoulos told an Australian ambassador that Russia had "dirt on Clinton.", which means did he think that the ambassador tell? http://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2017/12/30/george-papadopoulos-russia-investigation-new-york-times-nr.cnn    The fourth and final video what they did was use more oral and electric.
