I liked the diagrams and pictures that you guys put in yours but I found it to be a little wordy. It was hard to look at the powerpoint slides and not feel overwelmed. I liked how you examined different situations and asked the reader questions to get them more involved.

I like this one a lot. I felt that, like peacelove&music said, it was a little wordy but since you're not presenting it to the class, this is really good. You addressed all the important topics. I also like the practice questions, but I feel that you should put the answers on the next slide so we're not flipping back and forth to get the answers.
Besides that great job!

I found this project to be the best one for many reasons. Firstly, it hit all of the criteria and even went beyond what was needed. Also this was deffinatly the most thorough project out of all of them and you can tell that a lot of work was put into it. Yes, it is a little wordy, but it makes sure that all points are hit. The practice questions are also very helpful, and i do agree with the3rdkind about how it should be on the next slide, but overall this was the best one.

you guys have a lot of information and the diagrams make understanding vector addition and other mathematical processes very simple. In the future, though, try to reduce the number of words and figures per slide. If there is too much stuff on one slide, it will be harder to read and understand. Aside from that, really thorough. Good job.

I liked this presentation because i felt that the diagrams and pictures were helpful. I liked the idea questions because it made you have to think back and really understand what you had just read. I feel there were a lot of words, but it made me understand things more clearly. I think since there were a lot of words, it explained everything that needed to be said very clearly.

i thought the interactive aspect of it was quite good. because of the questions to the reader you are actually involved and not just having information thrown at you

I liked your presentation and I think it was very well done. It was pretty long but thorough and explained everything. The diagrams were great and the explanations were sometimes lengthy yet it was clear as geoff said, so overall it worked out well.

I thought this PowerPoint was the most useful project because the slides collaborated the necessary information with extra facts. I liked how they incorporated graphs into the slide to add a visual component. It was good that they made questions at the end to challenge what you just learned. I also agree with the previous comments, on suggesting that the words be divided up onto more pages so there isn’t as much text. Good job!

I liked this one, informative, yes, but all of them were so that's not really good grounds for comparison. Looking at a power point without a verbal presentation to go with it is kind of dry regardless of what you do, so it was wordy, but that comes hand in hand with being informative I think. I liked the practice questions in there, given a presentation to go with it I felt that this one would be the best. I can't fault this project on this because no one did it, but power points don't have to be cut and dry information, diagrams and questions, throw some humor in there to keep people engaged.

I thought that this powerpoint was very good. It had clear, to the point definitions, but also elaborated on explanations. The diagrams were very helpful, and all of the distinctions between vectors and scalars were coverd. I found it very easy to understand this powerpoint also. I agree with "0wpm", and think that if there was less information on each slide, and the information was distributed to more slides, it would be less overwhelming.

I think that this presentation has mostly strong points, although some things
irked me. There was a lot of text that i didnt want to read, though many times
it was offset by graphs or diagrams. it was good in that there was all of the
crucial information, and the part on the resultant was very informative.
good work.

This project I found very helpful because it had many pictures and diagrams that where visually helpful. I especially liked the profound observation regarding parallel vectors. Well done group five.

1. Which of these presentations did you find most useful? I found this presentation most useful.
2. What about that presentation made it useful? It had the most details and example but at the same time did not put too much text on each slide which made it easy to read.
3. How can it be improved? I agree with the 3rd kind about having the answers on the next slide over to make it easier and not have to flip back and forth.

I found the 3rd one to be the most helpful because i liked how important things to notice were bolded or in a larger font. I also liked how it was concise and i didnt have to read forever to get the point. I also liked the color scheme!!!

Lovely. It was clearly thought out and well organized. The visuals were very helpful and artistically pleasing. The explinations were sometimes a little bit confusing. In power point the language should be as clear and simple as possible. Other than that, horry for you.

This one was my favorite. I found that it fully covered the material in a way that oneone even unfamiliar with physics would understand. It was very informative, but i ahve a few criticisms. Im not a big fan of asking the reader the questions, and it could have been more visually grabbing, but all in all great project.

I liked this project because it had alot of useful information. I think that it had too many words but it explained everything very well. I also liked the diagrams and the practice questions. I liked how the diagrams were explained.

This one was probobly the best one. It covered all the information and helped a lot. Some of it got kind of boring when it just listed information and it lost me a little bit, but over all it was a really good power point. I think you really got to the point and everything you said was very useful
