Importance of Group and Individual Presentation Assignment

In this presentation I used three main theories in order to explain the topic of the presentation, the three theories were zones of transition theory, classicist approach of rational decision and relative deprivation theory. All these theories were taught in the class lectures, I observed that my own learning, internet research and personal reading helped me to understand these theories easily and make appropriate use of the same in my presentation work. There were certain issue raised during the presentation work, such as some group members were not completing their tasks and duties that were allotted to them. Due to some member's irresponsibility entire group faced problems(Poonpon, 2017).Time wastage was a major issue that was faced by our group. In order to overcome these issue we conducted different group meetings in specific intervals, meetings helped group member to understand each other and implement various changes in different areas. The meetings supported to identify strengths and weaknesses of every single individual within the group. It was also determined from the group meetings that group members were not provided duties with respect to their learning, skills and knowledge which was a major issue for failure of task allotted to them. The group members decided to re-distribute activities and roles to each member with respect to their capabilities and knowledge. The group was divided in to various parts with regards to different roles and responsibilities. One team of the group started working on collection of information, second team was responsible for interpreting & analyzing the information and the last team was allotted responsibility of framing appropriate information into Microsoft PowerPoint and giving presentation in front of the class. The presentation was prepared in a week, that was including good information collected via books, internet, articles and self reading. The presentation was build with 12 slides and its duration was 15 mins. It was presented into the class with dictation, it was observed that presentation was easy to understand and consist simple language with effective information related to the topic. The lecturer appreciated our hard work and we got pass in our assignment (Jolles, 2017).

I think this presentation assisted me to overcome my weaknesses such as working in a group, time management skills, presentation skills etc. The research or collection of information helped me to identify different areas and resources which can be useful for collecting relevant data or information for a particular topic. I also learned to work PowerPoint presentation which was a little confusing for me earlier. The presentation also supported me develop confidence in myself which may be helpful for me in the future. Altogether it was a great experience and added value to my learning and knowledge.
