I feel as if out blog group presentation we gave was not only informative to the class but it was also beneficial for the members of our group to do. I say this because by presenting our information to the class, it gave the people who did papers or journals to see what we had to say in our blogs and why we did blogs. The reason why I feel as if the blog group presentations were beneficial to the members of my group is because when we got together to discuss what we wanted to talk about in our presentation, it gave forth a better understanding of each of our favorite articles. For instance when C.J presented the video on the boys playing on a girls field hockey team, I felt as if this gave me more reasons why boys should be able to play on girls teams as well as girls playing on boys teams. Looking at this issue more in depth you can see that some athletes want to stay in shape and keep their skills at the top of their game. For instance, I could definitely see a boy that plays ice hockey want to play field hockey. The reason is that those two sports are in different seasons, and if there is no boys' field hockey team I do not a problem in him wanting to play on the girls team to keep in shape and keep his stick handling skills. The same goes with girls playing in boys sports. By looking at what another blog group discussed during class on girls playing football such as Holly Mangold, I feel as if they are capable to keep up with the boys then why stop them. Looking back on these presentations, I also think that these presentation were almost like a review session for the exam. The reason I say this is because most groups covered information that we saw on the exam, and these presentations should be kept in future classes to come.
I am glad that the group presentations served as a review for the final exam. I never thought about them as doing that but I am glad that it worked out that way. I also liked the video that C.J. showed. In fact, I think I used that when I taught this class online!
