  1. Mat, I really liked both of your videos - using your surroundings as examples and analogies to make your point to your audience. To the group in general, your program details are great! I especially like that you included a syllabus - it really helped me understand the organization of your program. And continuing your idea of "lines" through to to the Facebook page was a nice touch! Well done!

    1. Tina, thank you for the compliments and kind words. Yes, our team out in great working making sure there was congruency to show the importance of the initiation or foundation. The preparation of having a syllabus shows how important the foundation part is for the transformative experience.

  2. Comment from Gabriel Shetterley:

    Hello Group 5.
    First, let me congratulate you for creating such a fund and interactive program promotion. I didn't even think of using prezi! I think that is is a great and creative way to show the work you group has done this semester. I think that by using this methods of displaying the program, you were not only able to make the context accessible, but also fund and visually pleasings. I think your program is strong, and this multi-media approach just took it up a notch.
    -Best,
    Gabriel Shetterley

  3. Hi. I just wanted to chime in to say you guys knocked it out of the park. You folks were obviously organized. Going the extra mile with your promotion adds realism and professionalism. Adding the FB page, syllabus, and doing individual reflections shows that you were committed to your program. Not only did you include extra artifacts, but they were well done. Not afterthoughts. I would also like to say that I agree that this class has given us the opportunity to learn new ways of communicating with students. Students are learning Prezi, Powtoon, Canva, and others. I also agree that the open-ended nature of the course allows us to explore our own ideas in creative ways. Who would have thought that your project and ours came from the same class! How cool! Anyway, nice job!
