Good information about Klan. Very powerful video, shows ignorance and stupidity of KKK. Good clarity with relating to Depression era. Probable too much text on some slides. I learned that the Klan lost a lot of power during the 30s.
ReplyDeleteSteven:-Good volume, good information
-Should have stood behind podium, was a little distracting.
Taylor:-Good information, good volume
-not much eye-contact
Solid job overall
The powerpoint was very informative. I learned that they reached 4 million followers nationwide in 1920. The video was very interesting. Both people in the group had good volume and did an overall good job with the presentation.
ReplyDeleteThe videos that you showed during your presentation really had an impact on me, it gave me a good idea as to what the KKK believed during that time period. Some of your slides had a lot of text and I would suggest using the podium more and having better eye contact. Overall it was a very interesting presentation.
ReplyDeleteI believe the KKK is one of the biggest topics of this time period just because of what they did to America, and that everyone should know about it. I never knew that the KKK was started with confederate veterans. To me is seemed like you were not really confident when you were talking, so that is one thing to work on.
ReplyDeleteThe video that you had about the KKK right now helped me see a lot of things, it shows that it is still happening and nobody is doing anything about it. Steven had no "hiccups" during the presentation and knew what he was talking about. Taylor had good eye contact and also knew the information pretty well.
ReplyDeleteI thought they both did a great job. I like how they added several videos into their presentation. They worked well off of one another!
ReplyDeleteI thought this was a very good presentation. I think it's sort of funny and embarrassing to really look at the hypocrisy of groups like this throughout history. The video helped the presentation out a lot. The fact this still is around today shows how unwilling people are to realize they are wrong.
ReplyDeleteI think you guys did a good job. The powerpoint and video boosted your presentation. The video really highlighted the crookedness of the KKK. The only thing negative about y'all's presentation is sometimes you wouldnt be standing at the podium and talking from the computer. I just think that it looked unprofesional.
ReplyDeleteYou guys did good. I enjoyed how you showed how crooked the KKK is and how they almost could do anything they wanted.
ReplyDeleteI guys had great eye contact and I also really liked your video, but also didn't like the video because I didn't like what they said but I liked it because he helped me understand more of who they were.
ReplyDeleteSpeeches: You both had good eye contact and tried to connect with us as you were talking. That was good especially due to the sensitive material you were covering. The little bits of information you threw out made it obvious that you had researched well.
ReplyDeletePresentation: Very informative presentation. The video was pretty long but honestly it really added. The people in it were basically irrational. I didn't know that a hate group so strong still existed.
I liked the video you used because it really grabbed my attention and made me realize what this group was all about. I also thought you gave a lot of good background information about how it progressed into what it is today. I didn't really know there were different eras of it and I thought that was really interesting to see. I do think you guys read off of your notecards a lot and didn't give too much eye contact which would be something you could work on.
ReplyDeletePositive: The video was a really good find and I think it helped the audience understand the scope of the presentation much better.
ReplyDeleteNegative: Some of your slides were really wordy which made it hard to read all of it and listen to you at the same time.
I felt the info was good, especially pointing out how the KKK had its rise and falls since its inception. I think it could have been better only by spending a little more time behind the podium, rather than presenting from behind the computer.
ReplyDeleteThe information was there and the video made the right impact I think.
ReplyDeleteThe only critique would be to present with more confidence
I liked the presentation a lot. I i think there was too much information on the slides but overall i liked learning about it becasue there was a lot of information i didnt know about the KKK that was talked about. I think it was crazy that 10% of african american legislators were victimized by the KKK.
