After completing our Greek Mythology Campaign, I feel very accomplished. I learned many things about our candidate, Apollo, and I think our group of three did very well. We didn't encounter many problems with creating our infographic/slideshow and presenting it in front of the class. Everything ran smoothly and everyone was contributing something to the project. Some of the problems we had were during the making of our slideshow. We had problems organising our slideshow: we argued over the slide layouts, where the information should be put, the visuals of the slides and information that should be omitted out of the slideshow. After a while, we got everything sorted out properly, and we were ready to present. The presentation part was easy; we read off our script and slides, sometimes adding our own words and using verbal gestures. I think that all three of us had excellent presentation skills; we used expression in our voices, we spoke very clearly and we made eye contact with the audience. While working on this project, I learned that even working in a group has its advantages and disadvantages compared to working solo. You get to share the work evenly and share more knowledge, but you also have arguments between partners/group members. Overall, this was a fun project and I'd like to do something similar again in the future.

Our group project so far is turning out to be both successful and a bit complicated. It was easy researching the facts about our candidate, Apollo. We used a variety of websites and books to look up the facts and strengths of Apollo, and also the weaknesses of the other Greek gods. The tricky part was how to put all the information on our infographic/slideshow. Some of us disagreed with some of the information we put on. We also tinkered a while with the layout of the slides. After a while, we decided what would be best for our slideshow, and we finished. I think it looks great, and I can't wait to see what the day of the actual election campaign will look like.
