Ari Bleemer
Student Protest
This was overall an excellent presentation. The design of the digital poster aided by the use of
prezi was a good design choice and fit very well with the subject matter. There was an effective use of
contrast, organization, and bold words. It was stylish, eye catching, and well designed. Furthermore his
presentation was very strong as he spoke clearly and annunciated very well. I could not sense any
nervousness, and he came across as very knowledgeable. There was lots of depth and certainly no lack of
information provided.
On the flip side, I felt he spoke somewhat fast at times, which made the presentation feel
somewhat rushed, however Im sure this was to account for the five minute limit, which he did exceed.
Sathvik Kadavera
LGBT Communities on Campus
I felt Sathvik was knowledgeable about the topic which he was presenting. It seemed as if he had
thoroughly researched his topic as he was informative, and his poster was full of information.
My first impression of his presentation was the poster, which was overall underwhelming. It
lacked flare and visual appeal, with the exception of the rainbow stripe at the top. Aside from this it was
mostly devoid of design elements as there was a minimal use of bold faced words and images.
Additionally, it featured large blocks of text and overall had a very plain look. I believe the presentation
could have benefitted from increased use of body language, as he stood rather rigidly the entire
presentation. My final remark is that he seemed to deviate from the topic of communities on campus at
times, which somewhat threw me.
Jordan Madison
Something about sexuality??
Jordans poster excelled aesthetically, and I felt he did an excellent job styling it. While it did
lack bold words and emphasis, and did at time present large blocks of text, I felt it was overall well done.
I thought his actual presentation was strong as well. He seemed very comfortable in the spotlight and not
at all nervous. He had a very nonchalant, informal, and relaxed attitude and made it seem easy.
On the contrary, I found it difficult to follow the presentation, and I dont feel I gathered as much
from it as I could have. Jordan promised that I would understand the significance of his wordy title later
on in the presentation but I never really did. At times, I was unsure about what the topic he was
presenting actually was.
Amanda Remus
Transgender Inclusivity on Campus
Amandas presentation was strong. She spoke clearly, and although not the most expressive, was
informative and interesting. Additionally, her presentation was stylish and had an appealing design which
I felt effectively used pictures and other design elements.
I do feel however that some design elements were lacking, such as the use of bold face text for
emphasis. Furthermore, she often resorted to reading off of the slides as opposed to actually presenting,
which I felt was an indication that too much information was displayed on the slides.
Phillip Murray
Resource Allocation
I felt that Phillip spoke very clearly and confidently throughout the entirety of the presentation.
Out of all of the presentation, I thought he had the best word choice; a very good use of vocabulary. I
know this can be difficult to do when in the spotlight so I certainly commend it highly. Furthermore, his
use of body language was effective and he did not seem nervous at all. I thought his poster was well
designed and effectively used visuals and other design elements. It certainly did not lack information, and
his presentation was very informative and interesting.
My once criticism is that his poster was somewhat plainly designed. It was well organized, but
was certainly not the most eye catching or appealing.
Joseph Sterling
Classroom Size
I thought Joseph was well composed and collected throughout his entire presentation. It was
informative and certainly well prepared. Additionally, his poster made good use of contrast, as certain
aspects really stood out. There was also a multitude of hyperlinks and visuals present and I feel he made
good use of them.
I did feel however that the poster was lacking in variation and felt very uniform overall, with
especially little variety to fonts. Furthermore, he did seem a little nervous and spoke somewhat softly.
He definitely could have presented in a more engaging manner.
Sarah Wilcox
Free Speech vs. Safe Space
I thought this was an interesting topic to present on and appreciated its uniqueness. Her
presentation was strong, as I could tell it was well rehearsed and informative. She seemed confident and
collected throughout. The poster was both stylish and well organized and made effective use of pictures
and hyperlinks.
However, the presentation did feature big blocks of text which I felt were unnecessary and
detracted from the more stylish elements. Additionally, there was a minimal use of body language and
she said umm frequently, which made her seem uncertain or unconfident. Overall it was without a
doubt a strong presentation.
Meredith Wolpert
Sexual Assault
I felt everything about this presentation was well done. There was a good use of body language,
and Meredith spoke very clearly. Additionally she seemed very knowledgeable about her topic and
presented confidently without any hint of nervousness. The presentation was also well done, and I
appreciated the variation in fonts, which significantly improved its appeal. It was well formatted and
extensively utilized hyperlinks and visuals.
I dont really have any criticisms for this presentation, I felt it was very solid.
Grace Kehoe
Freshman Engagement Program
I felt the strongest part of this presentation was the design of the poster. Thats not to say that the
presentation wasnt good as well, but I really felt the poster was exceptionally well done. I really liked
how images were imposed on the background image of what I remember to be a bedroom. It was a cool
effect which made the poster very appealing. I could tell lots of effort was put in to making it, rather than
just letting a prezi template do all of the work. I felt her presentation was strong in the beginning as she
appeared confident and collected. She did not seem nervous at all and I enjoyed listening to what she had
to say.
However, I do feel that her presentation declined in quality the longer she stood in front of the
class. She seemed almost to become less confident toward the end which did not help her make a strong
conclusion.
Rebecca Kaufman
The pacing could have been better as you were not able to present all of the information in 5 minutes. To
do this perhaps you could have hit on some key points instead of going in-depth. Also you could have
talked more about the physical poster instead of just your project.
Sathvik Kadaveru
LGBT Community on Campus
Done Well:
The design of the poster was great. The use of boxes to separate the information allowed for a very clear
presentation. The title was also well done as it tied in your topic.
Could be improved:
Seemed to be nervous while presenting. More confidence in your presentation will come with time. The
use of pictures or visuals in your presentation would have been good to keep the audience engaged with
your presentation.
Jordan Madison
Duplication Waltz of Metationia and Expectation
Done Well:
Good projection of voice and hand movement. Overall you seemed confident and presented your topic
rather than simply reading from the screen. The use of Prezi aided your presentation because it made it
dynamic. Good relation to Commencement and the use of Youtube videos made it even more multimodal
Could be improved:
Pacing could be better. Seemed to be rushed at the end. Also you could have included hyperlinks so that
people could have gotten more information.
Amanda Remus
Transgender inclusivity on College campuses
Done Well:
Project voice clearly and seemed calm and confident. Good use of visuals and pictures to explain what it
means to be a transgender. Good use of circles and boxes to create separation. Good pacing allowed for
an under 5-minute presentation and also included hyperlinks for more info.
Could be improved:
Instead of reading off of Prezi could have presented more and elaborated on points. Could have
connected it to Moo better
Joseph Sterling
Classroom Size in higher education
Done Well:
Related the topic clearly to Moo. The poster was laid out well by using white text and being boxed off by
yellow. Used hyperlinks which is important for the audience engagement. Good use of the picture in the
middle. It was relevant to the presentation and also drew in the audiences eyes.
Could be improved:
More change of tone and excitement in presentation. More elaboration on information. Overall the
presentation could not have been improved much
Phillip Murray
Resource allocation in higher education
Done Well:
Spoke confidently and with a good pace. Projected voice and used body language. Broke down the topic
in an organized way and used good topic transitions. Used hyperlinks which could be referenced for
additional information.
Could be improved:
Could have used more information and evidence. Related more to Moo.
Sarah Wilcox
Free speech vs Safe speech
Done Well:
I like the introduction to your topic. The use of boxes and arrows were good for proximity and
alignment. Good change in tone of voice and voice projection. The images you used were relevant and the
transitions were good. Use of hyperlinks and video allow for more information if the audience wants.
Could be improved:
Could improve pacing by only hitting on key information. Also you shouldnt really include your
personal opinion of love over hate. Overall great presentation.
Meredith Wolpert
Gender roles and sexual assault in fraternities
Done Well:
Engaged audience with questions which was great. Spoke confidently and projected your voice. The
visual and variance of font color engaged the audience well. Great connection to Commencement. The
YouTube video was also a nice touch.
Could be improved:
Would like to have seen more information about how gender roles effect rape besides the one slide and
visual. Didnt really connect it to fraternities. Just to colleges in general and Phi Tau which can be
considered an outlier.
Grace Kehoe
Freshman engagement and academic performance
Done Well:
The poster design was great, it fit right with your topic. It was also filled with pictures, graphs, and
hyperlinks which was great. Presented well and spoke confidently
Could be improved:
The information was all over the place. I wasnt really sure how all of it related back to your topic. Also
a lot of the information game from Georgia Tech and not colleges in general.
Rebecca Kaufman
Campus Rape
Done Well:
The use of the acronym was great. It allowed you to organize your presentation into 4 categories. The
intro to the topic was also great. You projected your voice clearly. The use of video, images, and links
kept the audience engaged. I liked how you presented the information rather than just reading it.
Could be improved:
Seemed slightly nervous and spoke quickly. In the conclusion you started to input your personal
opinion. The cartoon was funny, but good be seen as offensive to some parties.
Sarah Golden
Lack of mental health education
Done Well:
Used good color contrast and several images and graphs. The relation to Moo was great. You were able
to pace your presentation so that you finished right around 5 minutes. Spoke confidently and seemed
confident. You went more in depth than on poster which was good.
Could be improved:
Didnt really engage audience or use body language. Lack of information on screen. Layout of pictures
could have been more structured. Why does religion matter?

Long paragraphs can be discouraging to readers. Maybe condense and then add a bunch of links
for further reading.
2. Sathvik
LGBT Community on College Campuses
Things Done Well: loud voice, clear and appealing page layout, fantastic use of hyperlinks, great breadth
of information presented, unbiased and clear information, thorough presentation
Things to Work On: Using more images and less text, making the presentation slightly less in-depth,
including less anecdotal facts, following the time limit
3. Jordan
Finding Sexuality and Self While at School
Things Done Well: clear voice, very comfortable as a public speaker, very good support of his
information, excellent references to sources
Things to Work On: speaking less colloquially, focusing less on the connection to Commencement,
showing more support from the scholarly articles, and including only completely relevant information
(Note: It may not have been the best decision to show the video, what with the time limit)
4. Amanda
Transgenders on College Campuses
Things Done Well: Good use of pictures, clear voice, clearly knowledgeable about her topic, perfect
amount of generalizing a broad topic, perfect presentation length
Things to Work On: The layout of Prezi didnt help her presentation, as it was too distracting, not
everything was legible because of the font size and Prezi layout, the presentation was mostly comprised
of examples and anecdotes, rather than information
5. Joey
Class Sizes Effects on Higher Education
Things Done Well: Great page layout, great amount of hyperlinks, perfect timing. I enjoy how he
discussed the effects on students as well as professors.
Things to Work On: Slightly too wordy boxes of texts, the size of the text was slightly too small
6. Phillip
What could be improved?: Some visuals were a little confusing, kept looking at the poster behind her
information you have on your poster covers many aspects of undergraduate research e.g. the
advantages of undergrad research.
Alex Biester - Change in Tuition
You did a good job explaining the root causes of high tuition increases and its effect on
student enrollment. I also like the use of graphs to support your argument.
Erin Oakes - Womens Choice of College Major
The information you have in your poster is great at explaining the reasons why women
choose the majors that they choose. The argument about women having to choose between
family and career is one that I dont normally see, so its good that you included it.
Andrew Abdow - Women in STEM
The information you have in your poster is great at explaining the reasons why women
are less likely than men to choose STEM. The layout of your poster looks nice. You also did a
good job of addressing stereotype threat and the misconceptions that women have about STEM.
Alex Rahban - Female Advantage
Your topic is interesting since very few people talk about it. You did a good job of
explaining the reasons for the gap in performance between both genders.
Chris Baur - Transgender Inclusiveness
You did a good job of highlighting the obstacles faced by transgender students on and off
campus.
Charles Nguyen - Rape Culture
For such a highly discussed topic, you did a good job explaining it. I liked how you
included popular depictions of rape culture and the glorification of sexual violence.
Moriah Skinner - Sororities
You did a good job of providing adequate information in defense of sororities. You also
did a good job explaining the benefits of sororities and debunking myths surrounding greek life.
Aman Nair - Pell Grants and Graduation
Financial issues in college is rarely talked about in fiction but commonly discussed in
scholarly articles and the media, so I like that you brought it up and related it to class reading.
Your use of charts was very helpful in supporting your argument.
Matthew Chan - Feminism
Nice job tackling a somewhat controversial topic. However, I feel that the whole
presentation was just you listing out organizations for women. You could have added events run
by college campuses to help the audience get a better understanding of feminism.
Arielle Margulies - Learned Leaders
The presentation was mostly about sororities even though the title is Learned Leaders.
Ill give you the benefit of the doubt since you were trying to imply that sororities are places for
women to learn leadership skills. You did a good of incorporating research results into your
presentations.

Arielle Margulies Peer Review
Presenter Name: Ari Bleemer
Research Focus: Student Protest
What was done well:
A little bit too long, would be helpful to talk a little but less on each of the topics
Slow down a bit, it can be hard to follow when you are talking very fast!
Visual was easy to follow, and presentation fit the layout of the poster
Good eye contact with the whole audience, not just our professor
Good use of examples within presentation
There was a lot of white space on the poster, so that space could have been used in a
more efficient way:
o more examples, explanations, or pictures
The presentation was a little bit too long (which happened to a lot of people) but could
have been made shorter by explaining where the information could be found instead of
what it was.
Presenter Name: Jordan Madison
Research Focus: The Duplicity of Metatonoia
What was done well:
I really liked how you chose to present your sources as well as the links to the sources
easy to follow/find on my own
Good pacing of presentation
Language choice was professional and fit theme/concept well
Presenter Name: Amanda Remus
Research Focus: Methods of Transgender Inclusivity of College Campuses
What was done well:
Maybe add more subtitles or explanations to the presentation to explain the links to
someone who does not see your presentation
More examples of scholarly articles on the poster could give your research more ethos
Presenter Name: Joseph Sterling
Research Focus: Classroom Size in Higher Education
What was done well:
Loved the visual, thought the theme fit the content very well
Great eye contact with whole audience
Presentation and poster were near and nicely organized, making the whole presentation
appealing to the audience
More confidence! The presentation was great, just be a little but more confident in
language and posture so gain more credibility from the audience
Different color for links, they were a little hard to read
Presenter Name: Phillip Murray
Research Focus: Resource Allocation in Higher Education
What was done well:
Maybe add a little more visuals to make the Prezi less wordy
Consider talking more about your popular pieces to make information more relatable to
college age students
Read less off the slides, presentation was great, you didnt need to rely on the slides at
all!
Presenter Name: Sarah Wilcox
Research Focus: Free Speech vs. Safe Space
What was done well:
I really like your color scheme and the choices you make in designing your Prezi, it made
your presentation more interesting and fun for the audience
I could tell you were passionate about your topic, which definitely enhanced your
presentation
Center the home page to make it more visually appealing for the audience
The presentation was a little slow, you could go a little bit faster during transitions to be
more time efficient
Presenter Name: Meredith Wolpert
Research Focus: Women Gender Roles and Campus Sexual Assault
What was done well:
Great pacing and eye contact could tell that you practiced!!
Great use of space within the Prezi easy to follow and visually appealing
I liked how you were one of the only ones to actually use the space in front of the room,
definitely enhanced the presentation
You talked a little fast, which makes sense during a timed presentation, but talking a little
slower about less information could definitely benefit you.
Yellow was a little bright for me!
I loved the idea behind the poster and how it connects to your topic, but it was a little
clustered and hard to follow
You dont have to read directly off the poster because you obviously know what youre
talking about, so instead try and make better eye contact with the audience and go from
memory
Presenter Name: Grace Kenoe
Research Focus: How Freshman Engagement Programs Impact Freshman Retention Rate and Academic

What was done well:
Presenter Name: Rebecca Kaufman
I loved the confidence and eye contact with entire audience not just professor
Great use of statistics to make the presentation
I loved how you were able to engage the audience during one part of your presentation,
making your topic more relatable and interesting
You had a lot of information with not enough time, spend less time on some topics to
make room for others
Talked very fast, could have slowed down a bit without the time constraint!
The poster could have had more descriptions for those seeing the poster without a
presentation
Add specific sources and links to the poster so the reader/audience can follow your ideas
better!
Presenter Name: Sarah Golden
Research Focus: Lack of Mental Health Education in Universities
What was done well:
1. The Freshman Experience regarding how satisfied freshman are with their first year
2. I found that you maintained a very good speaking pace and kept your nerves calm while
presenting. I really liked how you organized your presentation into sections according to
Fact or Fiction. I feel as though this was a very effective way to portray the statistics
while furthering your thesis with the layout.
3. I do not recall any mention of relating your subject to Moo or Commencement, so maybe
work on that for next time!
Chris Jacobs
1. Stigmas in College
2. I feel as though you had some very good, useful links in your presentation that truly
furthered the ideas and topics that you were discussing. I also really enjoyed how you
stood away from the podium to present and really let the audience see you!
3. I feel as though some of the alignment in your presentation was rather confusing as some
of the textboxes and pictures did not align in a comprehensive order. I couldnt find a
comprehensive path to follow the information on the poster; I dont think it was randomly
placed, but it would have been nice to have some more organization to the structure.
Alex Crowley
1. Undergraduate STEM Research and How it Leads to Student and Professional Success
2. I loved your topic as it was not only very specific, but it also was very relevant to our
lives as we go to school at a Technical Institute! I also really enjoyed the alignment of
your presentation as it was easy to follow and the contrast of colors was very appealing to
the eye.
3. One of your pictures of a graph was a bit fuzzy, so it was hard to read the information on
it. In addition, I feel as though you tended to stay behind the podium when speaking; it
would have been nice if you came to the front of the class and pointed to specific parts on
your presentation!
Erin Oakes
1. Women in STEM
2. I think that you had a really good contrast in color in presentation and the alignment was
very appealing to the eye. I also think that you included just enough words in your
presentation so it wasnt overwhelming, but it got the point across and summarized what
you wanted the audience to know. I really liked how you used bullet points for your
ideas- it really helped the audience understand your presentation.
3. Overall I feel like you could have included more links to support your findings and for
the audience to investigate your topic further. I also sometimes felt as though the pictures
you included were unexplained and didnt further your topic. But overall, I enjoyed your
presentation!
Alex Rahban
nervous at times, but you started to gain confidence towards the end of your presentation!
Overall, great job!
Aman Nair
1. What is Feminism?
2. I feel as though you did a very good job explaining the three waves of feminism. In
addition, I really liked how you stood away from the podium and used a clicker- it was
very unique and improved your presenting skills! In addition, I really enjoyed how you
included the portion of your role and how the audience could get involved in feminist
movements on campus.
3. I feel as though you were rather nervous at time as your spoke rather fast. You gained a
lot of confidence towards the end of your presentation, which was good though! In
addition, I feel as though there was a lack of links and pictures on most of your slides, so
maybe consider including more next time.
Arielle Marguiles
Your speaking style was great, and you explained the layout of your poster, which allowed the audience
to understand the visual choices that you made with respect to this project. The format for you slides
was great, allowing the information to be easily transferred from the presentation itself to the audience.
The main critique I have is that your presentation contained a few spelling errors, which could be
distracting for the viewer.
Joey Sterling
Topic Area: The connection between Classroom size and Educational Efficiency
Your slides are very compartmentalized, which made your presentation easier to follow. Overall, the
information on your slide was good, with multiple forms of media, including both text and pictures. Your
speaking was good, with solid pace and explanatory gesticulation, allowing you to captivate your
audience.
Phillip Murray
Topic Area: Resource Allocation
Overall, your style of presentation was good with your poster being well done and easy to follow as well
as your speaking style being straightforward and effective, However, you may have wanted to delve into
the layout of the poster more, allowing us to understand the creating process that you underwent.
Sarah Wilcox:
Topic Area: Balance between freedom of speech and creating a safe space
You had a good pace of speech and also had an effective slide layout. However, I felt as if your topic was
a little too broad and did not really show enough comparison between the two aspects of your topic.
Also, during your presentation your sentences were broken up by the occasional um, which could
distract your audience and throw you off your train of thought.
Meredith Wolpert:
Topic Area: Gender Roles in Frat Culture, specifically with relation to sexual assault
Your topic was really specific and honed into a certain part of collegiate culture, allowing to go in depth
into one idea and overall being more persuasive as a presenter. You gestured well while speaking and
the layout of your slide was great, which in combination made your presentation really effective.
Grace Kehoe:
Topic Area: The connection between freshman programs and increased graduation/persistence rates
Your topic was very specific and interesting and your speaking was clear. My main point of criticism
stems from the layout of your poster as it was fairly confusing, mainly due to the color schemes and
spacing in between the different parts of your poster. Emulating your poster off of a dorm room is a
good idea, however the spacing in this particular execution made it slightly hard to follow.
Rebecca Kaufman:
Topic Area: Student rapes on campus
The layout of your slides was well executed excluding some instances of strange formatting such as off
centered images. Overall, your speech was good, however you could slow down you pace slightly so that
you dont stumble over your words. Also, your topic is fairly broad. By specifying the range of your topic,
you may have been able to deliver information more directly to the audience instead of trying to cover
the entire topic of student rape in 5 minutes.
Sarah Golden:
Topic Area: Mental Health on College Campuses
Your presentation incorporated various forms of information, including text and pictures, allowing the
audience to not be overwhelmed by a wall of text. Your speaking style was good and confident. My only
piece of critique is that your slide layout was a little off, seeing as your introduction(the connection to
Moo/Commencement) seems to be on the rightmost portion of your poster whereas placing it on the
left (the beginning of the poster) makes a little more sense. Switching around the layout of your poster
may remove any confusion regarding its format.
Improve: Dont stare as much at the computer when trying to think of your next topic of discussion it
makes it seem as though you are unprepared. Could have talked more about the layout of the poster
more and why she arranged things as she did.
Alex Biester-
Research Focus- How price elasticity of tuition varies among different socioeconomic classes.
Pros: used a very specific topic which helped focus his research. The layout of the poster is pretty good
and I liked the background template of the digital poster.
Needs Improvement: The layout of the poster was pretty good but couldve been constructed better so
that it would aid the flow of the presentation. Move away from the podium to talk. Less reading of the
computer screen when giving the presentation. Project voice more when giving the presentation. Better
body language.
Erin Oakes-
Research Focus: The focus was womens choice of college major and the influential factors associated
with this decision.
Pros: Spoke very well on her topic, was well versed in what she wanted to say. She had a good color
scheme for her digital poster. Designed the digital poster herself. The outline of the digital poster was
very well done.
Needs improvement: Needs to move away from the podium so that everyone can see her and what she
says is projected to the audience better.
Andrew Abbow-
Research Focus: Women in Stem
Pros: Good orator and was well versed in his topic. Had good movement and did not resort to standing
behind the podium when giving the presentation. Had a good color scheme for the poster, and also the
outline of the poster was done well and helped the flow of the presentation.
Needs Improvement: Dont say I think as much when you are giving the presentation and dont
necessarily need to plug in your personal opinions as much.
Alex Rahban-
Research Focus: The female advantage in educational attainment and the gender gap
Pros: Good concise talking on the topics he presented on his digital poster. Had a good connection to
commencement. The prezi was a good way to create this digital poster and had very good graphics in
the presentation.
Improvement: Less reading the computer behind the podium. Inflection of voice didnt promote
enthusiasm behind the topic or the presentation.
Chris Bauer-
Research: Transgender inclusiveness on college campuses
Pros: Use of statistics was well done and helped establish logos within the presentation. Good
connection to commencement. The prezi outline helps structure the presentation. There was good
graphics and the overall design of the digital poster was good.
Needs Improvement: Move away from the podium and do not read the computer as much. Bring
enthusiasm to the presentation and also project voice more so that everyone can hear. Remove the
ums between thoughts.
Charles Nguyen:
Research: Rape Culture on College Campuses
Pros: Prezi outlines the project well and there was a good use of statistics that helped establish logos for
the presentation.
Needs improvement: Stop reading off the computer when giving the presentation, project voice louder,
be enthusiastic and show good body language. Lots of text needs to get cut down in the digital poster
and let the articles do most of the talking when they are referred to later.
Moriah Skinner:
Topic: Womans NPC sororities do not have negative impact on undergraduate education
Pros: good outline of the digital poster. I liked the color scheme that was used. Talked in the middle of
the class rather than standing behind the podium. Elaborated on her topic well.
Cons: Seemed nervous and timid with a quieter voice. Needs to project voice more and stop reading off
the board. Constantly checking back at the board to know what her next topic of discussion will be.
Some ums and some thoughts were unclear.
Aman Nair-
Research Focus: connection between Pell Grants and Graduation Rates
Pros: Great Speaker who did not read the computer and was well versed in his topic. Fluent transitions
and refined speech. Good organizational design on the digital poster and also a good projection of voice
and body language.
Needs Improvement: Better font choices. Move away from podium and stand and address the class.
Matthew Chen-
Research: Feminism and what it truly entails
Pros: Prezi is done well and the outline helps aid the flow of the presentation. Moved to the center of
the room to talk about the presentation.
Needs improvement: Remove the ums between thoughts. Lagging thoughts and has trouble finishing
thoughts. Talked really fast and seemed nervous to give the presentation. Talked really fast and didnt
slow down to let himself think. Dont verbally doubt yourself the the class.
Arielle Margulies-
Research: How sororities prepare girls for their life after college and how they support them in college.
Pros: Did a very good job of explaining how her digital poster is outlined and why she put everything
together how she did. The prezi design was great and helped the flow of the presentation. Used headers
that differentiate the topics. Good discussion overall.
Needs improvement: Less reading off the computer and move away from the podium to address the
class.
Meredith Wolpert
Women Gender Roles and Fraternity Sexual Assualt
Things done well: very clear, good presentation, interactive, good visuals
Things that need improvement: a bit fast
Grace Kehoe
Freshman Engagement Program
Things done well: clear speaker, good pace
Things that need improvement: slightly messy visuals, slight hesitation, hard to read some text,
confused where on poster speaker is taking
Rebecca Kaufman

Things done well: good speaker, great visual aids, clear presentation
Things that need improvement:
Sarah Golden
Lack of Mental Education
Things done well: good visuals, not too much text
Things that need improvement: small visuals
Joey Sterling Peer Review
Presenter Name: Kate Bosen
Research Focus: The Freshman Experience
What was done well?
Could have had more details with more words on the poster
Could have utilized a couple more hyperlinks
Was very prepared for presentation (had notecards for what he wanted to say)
The organization of the poster and presentation were logical
Explained the connection to Commencement very well
The poster was not very clear on the topic; there was no title on the poster
The pace of the presentation seemed rushed
Stood behind the podium the entire time, so audience engagement faulted as a result
(even stepping to the side of the podium every once and a while would help)
Stood in the center of the two screens and spoke loudly and clearly
Presented his information and his poster in a logical order
Pointed out the resources available on the poster
At a couple of times, he struggled to find the correct word he was searching for, causing
an uncomfortable pause in the presentation
He used the word like very frequently, which may indicate that the presentation was
not prepared as much as it should have been
Stood still in one spot behind the podium, contributing to a lack of body language and
audience engagement (even moving to the side of the podium would help)
The presentation had no true conclusion; the presentation ended abruptly
Stood in the front of the room and moved around with an appropriate amount of eye
contact to the audience, enhancing the engagement of the audience
Demonstrated a great knowledge and understanding of the topic
Statistics provided were impactful and appropriate
On the poster, the white letters on a yellow background are difficult to read
Made an assumption during the presentation that the audience (the class) has supportive
parents. This is dangerous because it is not a proven fact that the class has this type of
relationship with their parents.
Tended to say I think multiple times throughout the presentation. This should be a
presentation of the poster and the topic, not necessarily ones opinions about how schools
should change in order to have more women in STEM fields in college.v
Stood in one spot behind the podium. Possibly moving around slightly can enhance the
body language of the presentation.
The connection to Commencement could have strategically been placed elsewhere in the
presentation, possibly at the beginning or end, because making the connection in the
center divided up the information of the research in an unnecessary way.
Could have had more eye contact with audience to enhance audience engagement; tended
to look at the computer screen often
Stood in one place, with a lack of body language, so moving around slightly could help
Read a couple things word-for-word from the Prezi slides; could have provided more
insight verbally to some of the information on the poster
Seemed slightly nervous, so more preparation could definitely help. Some sentences
ended in mumbles, which could also be contributed to nervousness.
Could have engaged the audience more by having stronger and more confident body
language
Had slight pauses and quieter moments, which could have been avoided possibly by more
preparation
Going along with the point above, her voice sometimes got quieter at the ends of
sentences
Could have placed more statistics that he shared during the presentation on the poster
itself or could have mentioned where to find more information about these statistics.
The connection to the course reading could have been stronger and explained better
Spoke very fast at times and as a result sometimes struggled to find the word he wanted
to say, so more preparation could have helped.
The poster itself could have used more visuals
Seemed slightly nervous throughout.
The visual organization of the Prezi being a tree format was unique and excellent
During the presentation, the analysis of the research was thoroughly explained to the
audience
The links on the poster were appropriate and enhanced the argument of her project
The connection stated in the presentation to Moo was very clear and well explained
Sexual Assault
Done well:
The numbers on the poster were helpful in making it more organized/flow well
Your volume and pace were good
The general organization of your presentation was very good
You looked down at the screen quite a bit, make a little more eye contact with the
audience
The conclusion was very abrupt
The poster seemed a little bare; maybe add some more information and hyperlinks. You
should also put the title/topic name somewhere on the poster
The facts seemed to be randomly placed around the poster
Could be improved:
Donju Lee
Stigmas in College
Done Well:
Could be improved:
Some of the images on the poster didnt really add to the information (ex: tree roots),
maybe add a more relevant diagram or something of that nature instead
You didnt really have a conclusion
It would have been helpful if all of the statements/facts on your poster had a link to more
information
Alex Crowley
Undergraduate STEM Research leads to Students Personal and Professional Success
Done Well:
The layout, color scheme and use of visuals on your poster were excellent (overall, it was
a very aesthetically pleasing poster)
The poster had a lot of very detailed information in addition to the links to more
information
You have great presentation skills (your volume, eye contact, pace, and transitions were
all very good)
I liked how specific your topic was
Could be improved:
My only complaint was that you mostly just presented your topic instead of your poster
you tried to cover all of your information, but it would have been better if you gave a
more general explanation and pointed out specific features of your poster
Alex Biester
How Price Elasticity of Tuition Varies Among Different Socioeconomic Classes
Done Well:
topic was very specific and the information was covered well
your pace and volume were good
I liked the layout and font of the poster, as well as the emphasis on the title
I liked the way you made the graphs hyperlinks
you were leaning against the podium for most of the presentation
you read off the poster a little too much and just sort of listed facts try and be a little
more animated
more links would have been helpful
you didnt really have a conclusion
Could be improved:
Erin Oakes
Womens Choice of College Major
Done Well:
The overall design of the poster was very good I liked the infographics, layout, font
choice and color scheme
Your volume, body language, eye contact and transitions were good
I liked the intro you gave at the beginning
The placement of hyperlinks was both helpful and creative (the link to your references
was a good addition)
Could be improved:
good body language (ex: pointing at the poster when you referenced a specific element
the presentation was well organized
I liked the layout and color scheme, as well as the consistent formatting of the poster
You seemed to express a lot of your personal opinions in the presentation (ex: the use of
phrases like I feel like)
try to slow down a little your pace was a little too fast, which made it seem like you
were nervous
more hyperlinks would have been helpful, maybe have one for each section instead of
just one
Andrew Abodow
Women in STEM
Done Well:
Could be improved:
Alex Rahban
The Female Advantage in Educational Attainment and the Gender Gap
Done well:
your volume, pace, and language use when presenting were good
you read off the slides a little too much try to keep eye contact with the audience
you didnt have a conclusion
prezi was overall visually appealing I liked how you incorporated information in the
pictures
good introduction, conclusion, and transitions
you did a nice job of actually explaining your poster (ex: telling us why you chose to use
prezi), not just the topic
Could be improved:
Chris Bauer
Transgender Inclusiveness on College Campuses

Could be improved:
Charles Nguyen
Rape Culture on College Campuses
Done well:
The design and layout of the prezi were good I liked the use of two different fonts and
colors
you had a nice introduction
your poster/presentation contained a lot of information
your volume and pace when speaking were good
Could be improved:
I appreciated that you stood in the center of the room instead of behind the podium
you actually pointed out the features on your poster
your poster had good alignment, as well as emphasis on the headings
I also liked the color scheme and use of graphs and hyperlinks on the poster
you looked back at the poster to find your information quite a bit
you seemed nervous sometimes you appeared to lose your train of thought
Moriah Skinner:
Womens NPC Sororities do not have a Negative Impact on Undergraduate Education
Done well:
Could be improved:
Aman Nair
The Connection between Pell Grants and Graduation Rates
Done well:
The alignment, color scheme, and use of emphasis (color blocking around titles) on the
poster were good
the introduction and general organization of the presentation were good
you had nice eye contact, volume and pace during the presentation
you did a good job of pointing out the posters features
I liked how you acknowledged the counterarguments
your topic was very broad and not necessarily just about higher education
you had quite a few awkward pauses, you also used umm.. too much
more links on the actual poster would have been helpful
many of the images didnt add to the content of the poster
good intro talked about why you chose the format used
good use of hyper links
talked about the poster itself very well
font and color choices completed the poster nicely
you used the transition I wanted to talk about a little too frequently
more informative images would have been helpful

Arielle Margulies
Learned Leaders: How Sororities Prepare our Girls
Done well:
Could be improved:
The layout of your poster is easy to follow, the titles clearly identify the sections you focus making it easy
to find information. You incorporated hyperlinks really well, there are a lot of them and they highlight
important parts within the big text blocks. Although the rainbow header was appropriate for the topic,
overall the poster needed more visuals. While presenting, your pacing needed to be a little faster.
Jordan Madison
The Duplicitous Waltz of Metanoia and Expectation
When you introduced your poster and explained your title it was clear you spent a lot of time researching
this topic, the interesting title also made us all more engaged out of curiosity. While presenting, you never
seemed nervous and kept the audience engaged. The background choice didnt seem related to the topic
but it transitioned nicely between quotes and ideas. I think it needed more hyperlinks than the two videos
included, though.
Amanda Remus
Transgender Inclusivity
I really liked that you included more photos and visuals than text, its more interesting to look at. You
also included a nice amount of hyperlinks to explain the pictures. One thing that would make the poster
better visually would be to hide the links so you the URL isnt as noticeable. You presented really well
and didnt seem nervous. By relating so much of your research back to Georgia Tech it was more
engaging.
Joseph Sterling
Class Size in Higher Education
The background of this poster goes well with the topic, chalkboards and education go together. I liked the
use of a graph as another visual that still conveyed information. The divisions and titles make it easy to
read and follow. One thing that could have been better was the incorporation of links. I think it would
have looked better if they were hidden inside the text instead of shown as a URL. You seemed a little
nervous which made it harder to stay engaged but you had good things to say to elaborate on what was
included in the poster.
Phillip Murray
Resource Allocation
Your poster was very logical, I liked that it started with broad ideas and got more specific by focusing on
the affects on students and faculty. The order was clear from the arrows, so it would be easy to follow
without being presented. I also liked that not all of the visual parts were photos. I think it would look
better if the links were hidden inside the text, though. You seemed confident when you presented and
clearly connected the ideas of resource allocation to Moo.
Sarah Wilcox
Free Speech vs. Safe Space
I really liked the scale that you included on your poster! It went well with your argument since you were
comparing two ideas and it looked really good. I think your poster needed more links so that there
wouldnt be quite as much text on the poster. You seemed a little nervous and had trouble making
transitions between your slides, but I think thats just because you went a day early.
Meredith Wolpert
Gender Roles and Fraternity Sexual Assault Culture
You did really good job engaging the audience by asking us questions at the very beginning. You were
very confident and had good transitions throughout your presentation. The variety of images you chose
made the poster nice to look at and conveyed information without having to read all of the information. I
think some slides needed more links, though.
Grace Kehoe
Freshman Engagement Programs
Your poster was really creative and appropriate for your topic. I liked how you were able to incorporate
so much information on different parts of the dorm. Your poster did need more hyperlinks, though. You
had a lot of good information when you presented but it would have flowed better if you didnt look at the
poster to read the information.
Rebecca Kauffman
Sexual Assault
I liked that you started with an acronym, it got our attention at the beginning and made the focus of the
poster clearer. I liked the variety of images you used but I think you needed more links. When you were
presenting you seemed confident and had clearly practiced.
Sarah Golden
Mental Health
I like the graphs on your poster, but I think if you included a wider variety of images it would be more
engaging. In both your poster and presentation you focused on solutions, it was a nice addition to the
topic but I wish you had spent more time introducing the topic and why it is a problem that needs to be
solved. You seemed a little nervous while presenting but were still able to convey a lot of information.
Sarah Wilcox
Assignment 3 Peer Reviews
1) Kate Bosen
- Freshman Experience Programs and Satisfaction Levels
- I love how your theme depicted the uncharted territory that is college
- You stayed behind the podium the whole time, making the presentation less engaging
than it could have been

- Looks like this was thrown together overnight, not a lot of information/research, I
didnt like the color scheme (bright lime green)
3) Donju Lee
- Stigmas in College, how stereotypes we hold affect our perceptions
- This is a very important issue, stood in the middle and used hand gestures to present
- Very vague about using specifics about how this is relevant now (and it certainly is),
disorganized poster
4) Alex Crowley
- Undergraduate STEM research- how it leads to success in life
- Good poster, lots of information, really knows her topic well, well-researched
- Hard to stay engaged, stayed behind podium
