- Worked with many students from metro VAncouver who each brought something new to the group
- Had to practice our communication and presentation skills
- presented to a large crowd, with the media present
- It went really slow at the beggining

- The material on the first day was a bit dull, but as the day went by it got better
- Had not alot of time to organize our presentations ( working under time pressure)
- Met very interesting people
- The material that we discussed on the second day was entertaining
- Watching the teachers listen to what we were saying and really analyzing it made us feel good like we mattered

Thank you very much for participating in this process. I'm glad you had such a positive experience. Sorry, I didn't know other students were going to be so dressed up - I guess you guys adapted well after. Seems like you had really good conversations as you went around to the different groups. I was very impressed with the ideas you all came up with and it will be interesting to see how each group follows up. Our class is well on our way so thanks again!
