In this weeks topic of globalization, it was the turn of our group presentation on the topic. Globalization is the “process by which businesses or other organizations develop international influence or start operating on an international scale”.
Our group had been researching all the necessary information we needed from either the core readings for the from our own independent sources. we did struggle to begin with a it was difficult to find the right information on this topic as its such a broad one and the fact globalization can be taken in so many different ways. we decided to slip the group presentation between us with each of us doing their own mini presentation within the presentation which worked out well.
The core reading didn’t help us with our work so we decided that we would do independent research. Once we knew what we needed to do it was much easier to find what we needed, for example i was tasked with explain what is globalization, anti-globalization and the pros and cons of it. there where some parts of the presentation that didn’t go well in my opinion; for example during my speech i showed a video and afterwards our presentation had gone off the screen where we have to restart and look unprepared.
Overall i think that the whole preparation and the final presentation went really well, we got all our points across to the class and we engaged with them a lot throughout the presentation with quiz and a debate on whether globalization was a good or bad thing.
