Oral Presentation and Self evaluation

Oral Presentation

Self evaluation:

I believe that my presentation was interesting but too short and too technical. It only lasted more or less 4 - 5 minutes. I used Power Point with a lot of images with colours and signals. When I was doing my presentation I looked at the audience but more at the teacher. I used hand movements and I tried to use changes of tone voice. I included discourse markers, for example: First of all, finally, to continued etc. and connectors like: next, then, after, etc. I think that my grammar was correct and my presentation was fluent.

In my opinion my oral presentation wasn't the best I could do, it was very short and I think that my research project was difficult to explain and that a lot of people didn't understand.

In conclusion I agree with my final mark : 6,5 but I wanted to do better.

THIS SMART T-SHIRT

This news explains about new technology to do exercise in particular about a new T-Shirt that has inbuilt GPS and heart rate and running speed sensors. In addition "D-Shirt" registers route and altitude and all the information can be sent to smart phones. Possibly to your phone or the phone of your personal trainer.

In addition this T-Shirt is very light and washable.

Finally I think that this new invention called "D-Shirt"could save lives in the future but this new invention for sure will be for rich people.

This invention is a clear example of how we are evolving and as we use more and more technology in our lives.

In my opinion I think this is a great invention for society. Any invention that persuades us to do exercise is positive.

Carnival 

This year I will dress up as an Eskimo. We will be a group of about 69 people where more than half of us are First and Second Batxillerato. The guys we will dress up as Eskimos and  the girls will dress up as Polar Beasr.

This year we decided to create a float in the shape of an igloo to listen to our music and keep our stuff.

 3 weeks to start Carnival and our float still needs a lot of work to finish it but sure we will finish it.

We are all working hard to finish the float on time and to have the float finished in less than 3 weeks- nobody knows how it will happen.

In my opinion I think it has been a good idea to do a group of a lot of people because I think we'll have a good and an unforgettable experience.

Now just have to wait and see, like everybody.

How much hidden sugar is in YOUR diet?

This news article explains about hidden sugar in our diet.

It tells us the quantity of sugar in the food that we eat every day. This news article describes that a lot of foods that we don't think are unhealthy actually contain a large quantity of sugar.

A professor of cardiovascular medicine at Barts and the London Hospital, Graham MacGregor, revealed that the food industry  puts sugar in the food so we eat more. The worst is that we don't know so much sugar. Did you know that a one can of Coca-Cola contains 9 teaspoons of sugar?

This article shocked me, because I didn't know foods contained this much sugar. We know sugar is bad for us. I think it is incredible that diet food contains sugar  and also I think that this article will shock everybody. It is not correct for the food industry to put in secret this information.
