Yuni's Disability Reflection

    This project was the most difficult to prepare in my opinion, because there was a lot of research and work put into it. But it was also one of the best projects/works for this class. I got to a lot more about disabilities and some that i personally have. I would like to have the links to where they found the information so that i could read about it. I'm an open book i don't really mind speaking about my issues. I got myopia, glaucoma, hypothyroidism, ADD, anxiety, depression and i have anorexic behaviors. 

    Well moving on! Group 1's presentation was beautiful and they had lots of information and topics to talk about their disability, and i felt like i learned more. I wish i could see their powerpoint once again so i could reread it and to maybe find links so that i can look at the articles they used. This project for sure brought all of us together because it was a more serious topic and we all had to do our research and make sure we don't say something wrong or offensive. 

    My group at first was a little out of order but as the date of presentation came we got all our things in order. we had spilt the works completely, we had some working on hearing while others had vision, we also split up who would work on the poster, brochure, study guide and agenda. which made the process of making the project much easier and faster. I appreciate how everyone was willing to do what they were told or assigned and i hope it stays like this for the project to come. 

    Group 3's presentation was amazing just like group 1 but i did feel like they were a little bit unorganized and had some missing details but that weren't too noticeable only if pointed out. Other than that i feel like group 3 had good information about psychological and cognitive disabilities, i would say invisible disabilities too but i honestly do not remember hearing about it. But from the other topics that they spoke about, i related because i have a learning disability and a self diagnosis of psychological disability. Like i mentioned on my first paragraph. 

    Lastly, Ashley and Elena's presentation was very helpful at least for me because now i know for future projects for this class or for others that i just practice my script before the presentation to make it sound more organized. Also, that i should of made the interview answers more organized and that i should of introduced who the interviewees more rather than just saying their names. One other thing i got from this presentation was that i should make sure that the pictures or words don't over lap with one another.  I'm not sure if anyone else learned from what Ashley and Elena said, but i do hope that they did and that many of us will use the feedback given to us as a way to better our future presentations. Lastly, i want to thank everyone who was in my group and also to Ashley and Elena.

For our second presentation, we had to make a brochure, poster, and power point explaining all the different types of disabilities and some disorders that there are. I can honestly say that I never knew this much about all the disabilities that existed. This project informed me so much and it really opened my eyes towards this subject. I enjoyed researching about vision and hearing disabilities and learning how to help people that go through this and try to understand them. Not a lot of people are informed about the different disabilities that there are so in a way I’m grateful I had the opportunity to teach my classmates and they also teach me. The first group that presented had to teach us about mobility and physical impairments, spinal cord disabilities, and head injuries-brain disabilities. One thing that really surprised me that they mentioned was how most spinal cord disabilities occur because of car accidents. I found that to be super scary because we all drive and it can happ...

Daniela’s Disability Reflection

  Welcome back! This reflection is based on our second speech, which centered around the theme of disabilities. As Sherri explained this speech's main idea and topics, my group excitedly hoped to get visual and hearing disabilities. Ideas of posters and brochures began forming and Yuni, our group leader, had already begun thinking of people she could get interviews with. Lucky for us, Sherri split the disabilities for each group, and we got the exact ones we hoped for!     After we got assigned our chapters and disabilities, the confusion started to settle in. We had all gotten used to the format of our first speech and now that we had more components such as posters,brochures, and study guides, we were all kind of...lost. However, this is the perfect reason to have a group leader. Even though she was probably just as lost as the rest, Yuni begun splitting up the work for this speech. We were split into a visual group and a hearing group. We all hurried to type in the cha...

Davier's Disability Reflection

                  This was our second project and it was about people with different disabilities. It was a really interesting topic to talk about and to find information. Our job was to do a presentation to explain how different disabilities affect the daily life of these people. The disability that my group was working on was hearing and visual disabilities. This project was a little different from the first one because on the first one we just did a PowerPoint. For this one, we not only made a PowerPoint, but also a poster, a brochure, and we interviewed two people, one with hearing disability and another one with a visual disability. We also had to research on the different perspectives the world has versus the United States on disabilities. Also, we did some research on the history behind these disabilities. We listed some of the organizations that are involved to help these people.           ...
