In this assignment, you will have a discussion with at least two peers. Your discussion will be planned on a topic that all participants have researched. You will then reflect on your experiences planning,
speaking, and listening through a written evaluation. You will complete the assignment by submitting
your response.
(Write a response that evaluates a group discussion.)

For this discussion, I felt very prepared. I used both background knowledge and internet research to prepare. The rules created for the meeting were pretty simple: ‘You may not interrupt when one person is talking, You cannot use profanities or vulgar language, and always follow the assigned topic.’ It seemed as though all of these rules were followed, although there needed to be more of them. Some of these being: ‘Do not start talking unless called upon,’ and ‘Use only formal and academic language.’

I feel like I stated my viewpoint clearly and correctly. I also think I was respectful to the other members and responded to their claims in an academic way, using academic language. When stating my claim, I used evidence from a credible internet article, citing the source, and giving the author credit. Other members used evidence from books and videos; they also gave credit to the authors. One of these members had a different viewpoint than mine. I again used evidence to support my claim and argue for it and against the other. When talking, I used the correct language instead of slang. For example, instead of using words like ‘tons’ and ‘heaps,’ I used words like ‘many’ and ‘large quantities.’

When speaking to other members, I made eye contact consistently with each member. I also used appropriate hand gestures to make my point more exciting and draw the other members’ attention.

Overall, the group discussion was sufficient at solving the problem. If there were more rules in place, it would be more effective. Since there was a varying amount of members, we were able to come up with a solution.

Explanation:

now, of course, the quality and the seasonability of these winter dreams varied, but the stuff of them remained.   they persuaded dexter several years later to pass up a business course at the state university—his father, prospering now, would have paid his way—for the precarious advantage of attending an older and more famous university in the east, where he was bothered by his scanty funds. but do not get the impression, because his winter dreams happened to be concerned at first with musings on the rich, that there was anything merely snobbish in the boy. he wanted not association with glittering things and glittering people—he wanted the glittering things themselves. often he reached out for the best without knowing why he wanted it—and sometimes he ran up against the mysterious denials and prohibitions in which life indulges.

there you go thats what we are missing
