I believe I earned myself a 95%. My slide wasn't as big as the other groups but I did identify a major problem and thoroughly explained it. I could've used a different format instead of using bullet points. While I did explain the nation problem, it could have been better. My group grade overall was a 90%. Everyone in my group, including myself, used bullet points for our slides. We had about 3-4 bullet points and that was not good for us. Each slide had to take up at least 2 mins per person. I believe only one of us reached the 1 min mark. The other groups had entire paragraphs for they're slides, which did help them reach 2 mins. The only thing they didn't do better than us was explaining the problem for each slide. My group can state the problem, explain it, and figure out a way to solve it. Other groups had to take most of their time to think about a solution for their problem.

We also talked about the book "Guns, Germs, and Steel". The author is Jared Diamond. The book was published in March 1977. Jared Diamond is a professor at UCLA in Los Angeles. He's a Biologists which is the study of human physiology. His real passion is to study birds. The book explains why Eurasian and North African civilizations have survived and conquered other areas. One factor of this is Geographic luck. This is when you are born into a well-developed area that is better than other areas. The book is also showing why white supremacy is wrong. Jared's journey started in Papua New Guinea. It's located above Australia on an island that looks like a Dino. Why on the island Jared was presented a question by man named Yali.
