  Angellie Martinez Group 1  Hello, my name is Angellie Martinez, and today I will be talking about all the chapters that were presented. Starting off with group 4, presenting Immigration. Throughout history, people have moved from one place to another, often leaving their homes behind to search for better opportunities, safety, and new beginnings. Immigration has shaped the way cultures mix and has influenced the development of many societies around the world.They explained that immigration is a big deal, not just for a country's economy, but also for its political identity. They talked about how immigration policies can affect everything from the laws a country makes to its relationships with other countries.They pointed out that immigration is a hot topic in elections, especially in countries where lots of people are moving in. Politicians often use immigration to try to appeal to voters, which can lead to arguments and division. But, they also said that immigration can be ...

  In our recent group project, all four teams did well and showed remarkable teamwork and dedication to their topics. Each group brought different insights and perspectives, which combined gave us in-depth knowledge on important social issues. Group 1 focused on the topic of gender equality, a theme that still till this day is talked about very strongly today. They were able to bring out both the historical and modern-day struggles for gender equity. Their presentation began with different types of gender equality, such as gender-based violence etc. they provided very good examples as well as information about each topic they talked about. This historical context was crucial, as it set the stage for understanding how far we’ve come and how much work still needs to be done. The group then went on to give out some more information about gender equality regarding the equal pay legislation showing how women, on average, make way less than their male counterparts for the same work. As w...

       Group 4 did an amazing job. Their presentation was about Immigration. Every slide was detailed and descriptive. Shadelle spoke clearly and was very confident about what she was talking about. She listed great facts about immigration in The United States. She mentioned, “Since 1970 the number of immigrants and the share of the U.S. population has increased mainly because of increased immigration from Latin America and Asia.” This made me want to research because she listed great facts about how this was important. She added descriptive photos to go with what she was talking about. Angie R talked about America vs. the World. System types, Electrical systems, separation of powers, political culture, and similarities had great facts. She presented her slides perfectly.   She quoted “Immigration resides in the United States. These immigrations are from almost every nation on the planet.” Which is true. Sade did a very good job articulating everything. ...

blog #2           Hello! My name is Breanna solano, and this blog post will be my reflection throughout my peers’ presentations.     As the November elections approach, my public speaking class has been working on the Elections Matter project. Over the past month, I've learned the importance of elections and related topics, including education policies, immigration policies, the electorate, and the election process. This project has shown me how important it is to be well informed to use our votes to advocate for the issues that matter to us.      This was a great special project to be done right now, as its relevance to current events (the election) helps us become more informed. Elections play a huge role in the policies that govern our communities, schools, workplaces, and so much more that affect our daily lives. This project was also presented at an event hosted by the professor on Zoom. The preparation paid off as things ...
