Reflections

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. You did have an interesting topic that did connect to the entire play. It is interesting to see where the play generated from and the influence of the superstitions on the lives of people then and still today. It was neat to see how you were ale to put it into a power point as well. The visual aspect helps the class understand. :)

1. Please explain why you chose the method of presentation that you did? We chose the method of power point because it is easy to work off. You can connect things and find information. You can also paste pictures along the side of the facts to show exactly what you mean. This method has both visual learner as well as reader learner.
2.What were your influences for this presentation? The influences for this presentation were resources off the internet. My group found a youtube clip of another Macbeth project and thought it related well to our topic. We connected and related the internet facts of our project.
3. Was this presentation any different then past presentations? Please explain. This presentation was harder in the fact that we had to not only find a ton of information but also connect it to a play. However, this presentation helped me understand the play better because we had to do a lot of research and we got more information and learned more and different facts about Macbeth.
4. Was this presentation any more challenging or was it easier than past presentations? Please explain.
5. Do you find yourself writing more on your private blog or on the class blog? Please explain.

Today I learned that the witchcraft in Macbeth played a very important role in the play. The witchcraft was a big part of the play, Macbeth was controlled by it. This is working for me because it is easier to find information and you get a bigger amount of facts on your specific topic. I like this method because it seems quicker and easier to research things about your general idea. I get a better understanding of using the internet as well as can see what I am looking for and visualize the play better.
