Ethan
- Recreating Ebbets Field
- Created a 3D model
- This was super creative and added a great element of multimodality to Ethan’s presentation
- My presentation incorporated multimodality by containing old images of James Bulger, Stephen Flemmi, and John Connolly
- To improve my multimodality, I wish I made a book cover for my story
- I’m not the best artist so making a cover would have been challenging, but it also would have been a lot of fun and made my presentation more visually appealing to my audience
- Presented notable events that occurred at the stadium
Cole
- Overall, my presentation went pretty well
- I’m thankful I managed to speed up my speaking pace so that I could finish in 7 minutes
- I noticed that it’s much harder to remember what to say when you’re in front of a crowd of people
- My strategy was to talk slow because that allowed me to think in my head what I wanted to say
- Normally, when I present, I use excessive body language, so for this presentation, my goal was to move my hands only when it added meaning to my presentation
- I wish I gave better responses when the audience asked me questions; I rushed to answer their questions and didn’t take the time to consider what they were truly asking
Matt
- Created a short film about artificial intelligence
- Researched AI and included articles in his film
- 3 minute film but it was demanding
- Plans on submitting his film to a festival to see if he can acquire any awards
Elie + Bryan
- Studied ChatGPT
- Covered the benefits and costs of AI
- AI is inevitable
- Conducted a survey asking questions to GT students about AI
- Interacted with the class by having an activity where students moved around the room to indicate their answers to a series of questions
- Throughout my presentation, I planned on interacting with the class more
- I was going to ask them some questions regarding their favorite types of stories
- Unfortunately, I was short on time, so I decided to not get input from the class and just focus on articulating all the information I needed to get out before my time was up
