EVALUATION:

I had evaluated the reporters of the second group in terms of the following aspect:
A. Visual Aids/PowerPoint Presentation
 The reporter’s visual presentations of their report were good and readable on
the first reporters but on the latter report, their presentations seemed to be
unreadable for the font size is too small and the color of the font tend to blend
with the background.

B. Mastery of the Topic

 Base on how they report on the class, it is clearly seen that there were reporters
who seemed to be so acquainted with their topic and tried their best to make
their reporting brief yet understandable.

C. Delivery of the Report

 The reporters do deliver their report well, the only problem is the modulation
of their voice. Some reporters tend to have their voice low voice that some of
the students at the back tend to fell asleep.

The reporters of this group made a good presentation of the topic they had presented.
But, I think, they should have elaborated the part when they reported to us the Laws and
Responsibilities of every individual to make us fully get by on what should we do and what
should we be doing in the first place to make our self-safe and secure from these life-
threatening wastes. However, it was a nice report and it seems that the reporters do did their
best.
