10. Entry blog 27 November 2015: Teaching class
Today was the day. The teaching class. Some love presentations, some don’t. Some are indifferent but overall, it needs to be performed. I found this class to be one of the more enjoyable classes since playing those games in the very first lecture. I felt very much at home standing up in front of people and presenting what was around 10 weeks of hard work. However, what made the class more enjoyable was the array of the other groups’ presentations. It was a very enjoyable class with one of the groups handing out free samples of their product along with their business cards, one group doing a game show and one group with a treasure map theme with their end product as the “x” that marks the spot. It was amazing to see the creativity that was put into their presentations, but also to their project and their process.

Overall, I found this project both easy and difficult; it is a theoretical project meaning that you don’t actually have to carry out tests which makes it easier since you only have to make your method theoretically sound, but it’s also hard to prove the method since you’re not actually performing tests.
