Tomorrow, we’ll have our presentation show to our teacher and classmates in the class. The topic of we group 5 is Noble Prize in Medicine 2005: The discovery of the bacterium Helicobacter pylori and its role in gastritis and peptic ulcer disease. We’ve prepared it for several weeks. At first, my part was about the diagnosis of H. pylori and the cures. However, after the TA’s instruction, I deleted most of my slices of PPT, from 11 to less than three. It turned out that I should get some extra part. So I cooperated with Stephen Liu, to say it precisely, helped him to search for some information, papers and shared some tasks with him. After giving him the vital paper, which our Biology teacher assigned to us, I have just leaved him to introduce this part about gastric cancer alone. So what about me? I just take the part of making a summary of our presentation. I spent hours designing an illustration which contained most of what we have introduced. Though actually it didn’t finished all by myself but by the help of my teammates, I’m still quite content with it.
It took us more than two weeks to correct our PPT to satisfy the TA’s requirement. All in all, she finally said that we’re OK last Sunday, but telling us to practice lecturing or we can’t frequently show all our works to the audience. So we took advantages of these two days to practice, practice and practice. After more than ten times of practicing, most of us can memorize all the 21 slices of PPT and give a complete lecture of this topic by only one person. That’s quite amazing!
Tonight is the last night we had a discussing group, it was quite weird because that my emotion alternated between excited and sorrowful. I can’t wait to show all our efforts in class, but after that, all things come to the end. It made me a little bit sad…
Whatever, what should we do now is having a good sleep, and doing our best to make a perfect presentation. Nobel group 5, Go Go Go!!!
New words I’ve learned from this time:
