The presentations on Tuesday basically took up the entire class period so we did not have time to discuss our reading or the lecture. I was impressed with all of the group's presentations. I was curious to see if groups would have approached this project differently. It appears after all of the presentations that most of the groups had similar ideas of what the end product would look like. I few groups segmented a little differently. I liked when the groups made up catchy names for their segments. I felt that the substance abuse and the cancer group's presentation was touching and like others mentioned I became very interested in becoming a potential donor for marrow.
I also enjoyed the different videos shown to go along with the presentations; I think they make the presentations more relatable and entertaining. I don't know what we did before we had smart classrooms : )
As for the readings... I also felt the article by Tversky and Kahmeman called, The Framing of Decisions and the Psychology of Choice was extremely confusing, wordy and too statistical to be able to relate to. It was not straightforward and I do not think it really helped me understand the topic for the week (maybe through lecture it would have made more sense but I'm not sure). However, the article by Rothman et all was much more understandable. I enjoyed learning about the study involving college students and their perception of prevention of the letrolisus virus and how gain and loss-framed messages influenced their behavior.
On a different note, I think it is clear that our presentations are taking longer than we have scheduled on our syllabus so I'm happy that there has been adjustments the syllabus so that we have enough time for project 2.

I want to say thank you and good job to our group for a presentation that came along nicely. It's always wonderful to work in a group that has great teamwork and thank you to the other teams for suggestions. We are going to target a more diverse population for our next project (and try and find college students drinking red bull in the library : )
