Reflection Post on Country Research Project

For the past few weeks, our class has been working on researching countries with the intention to present our research to each other as a powerpoint. The country I researched was Brazil. Doing this research rekindled a love in me for traveling, and I enjoyed looking up beaches and monuments in picturesque and culturally-rich Brazil. I also enjoyed designing the powerpoint, using lots of color. What I didn't like so much was having a limit to the amount of words per bullet. If I have information that I think is interesting, then I'm going to share it, whether it's five or fifteen words. Also, it frustrated me when I didn't have enough room on the slide to fit pictures. They need to make those things bigger. What I would have enjoyed about this project would be researching something we find more interesting. I did like the country idea, and I thought it would be cool to learn a lot about them. Which it was, but so would be researching our favorite fairytales, or Native American tribes, or just something that wouldn't feel like a task, something we would be eager to know more about. Agree?
