Evaluation

What went well
 I personally believe that I did really well when it came to presenting my presentation. I did a lot of background research before making my presentation so that I had enough knowledge on my show to inform my classroom peers. I included a lot of key terminologies and theories so that I could talk about my presentation in greater detail.

Even better if 
In my opinion, I think that my presentation would have been better if I had been more confident instead if being nervous and spoken much more clearer for the rest of the class to understand my presentation.
