Reflection on Ameer Salem’s presentation



Reflection on Ameer Salem’s presentation

Date: Wednesday 23rd May 2012

Venue: W007

Time: 1130

Topic: obesity

Introduction: Ameer started his presentation by asking us about the meaning of obesity.

Then he showed a body mass index (BMI); it measures the body fat based on height and weight that applies to adult men and women. I did not have any idea about BMI. Then he showed overweight and obesity worldwide, now estimated to involve 1.7 billion   people. That study is by Prof. Philip James.

Then he showed reasons and solutions about obesity and discussed all points in a comfortable manner.
 He asked and answered questions confidently.

Both body language and eye contact were confident.

New things which I learnt:

Now I know if anyone is obese by using the body mass index.
People who are overweight, are exposed to many diseases easily.
Overweight and obesity worldwide now is estimated to involve 1.7 billion   people.

presentation reflection



Wed 25/04/2012 Khaled and Salem at 11:00am presented about Muslim scholars


Khaled introduced the presentation clearly, which Khaled controlled surely, with the watchers during the presentation. There was much new information. For example I learnt  about Ibn Al Hitham the father of the laser and most inventions now in the world were first invented by Muslims.

The slides were nice, beautiful & educational and the video of the 101 inventions was good.
I had many questions but the video answered my questions.

Voice: strong and organized.

 English: so far so good. Body language and eye contact:confident.

Overall: it took all my attention and it was interesting.
