Lesson 11: Presentation week!

This week is the time when we applied what we have learnt for the past 11 weeks and it's time to put those knowledge into the presentations. My group presented this week and out topic is on Biological Warfare. Do give us your support and comments with regards to our webpage. As usual, Dr Gurinder explained to us some concepts in the beginning of the lesson before we start the series of presentations.
The quote that i have found it useful is actually the quote by Oscar Wilde

You know more than you think you know just as you know less than you want to know.


There are 4 presentations this week. Group 1's presentation is on sports technology, followed by my group, group 3 chose Animation as their topic and lastly group 4 focuses on Technovention. I feel that the most interesting presentation that i had witness among the 3 groups is the one on Animation. Animation has started since our childhood days and seeing the behind the scene preparation and how it have evolved is something that has intrigued me. The most interesting idea that I have seen was the video shared by them during their presentation. It was on how a device could be use to create a invisible "screen" and after a spotlight is shined on it, we can view the the animation on that very space that you have created.


Well, I would say the key takeaway for this week is about my presentation topic, Biological Warfare. It has been proven that Biological Warfare is a threat to our society today and it will be detrimental if the biological agents have fallen into the wrong hands. Hence, there is a need to change focus on the development of such weapons. In addition, the strain that it has put on the economy is very high and more resources has to be used in order to recover the economy. I hope through our presentation, we can spread the message across people about the threats of such weapons and discourage the use of it.


I would rate this week's lesson 9/10. The topics that all the groups presented are interesting and engaging. I am looking forward to next week's lesson on the left over 4 groups' presentation. I will end this week's post with a this quote which i find it pretty meaningful.


We never know what will be thrown at us, but it’s up to each of us as to how we deal with whatever does come.
