My perpsective about today's Power point presentations!

In my opinion the most powerful presentations which I saw today are Morgan Latin's and Stephanie Hill's. Their presentations where about real life issues which do visibly effect the lives of many people daily. Morgan's presentation was about education of people who are ethnic/language minorities, and people who are mentally and physically disabled. In Houston alone, there are many problems with the education attainment level, of many people who are ethnic/minorities, and the people who have ADD and or more serious mental disabilities, let along physical handicaps. Morgan wants to change this phenomenal so that low education attainments levels will rise and this will hopefully one day be a problem of the past, and not the present. Stephanie wants to target the problem of homelessness. She and some other people who travelled on the Washington D.C. trip, meet a man named Steve, who knows how it is to be homeless. Meeting him combined with her penchant for helping others has even further motivated her to help even more. She told the class that there about 700,00 homeless people in North America, and from a video staring Mr. Steve, I learned that many people who are actually homeless are hidden out of pride and shame. I think these are understandable attitudes to have when many people have been guilty of shaming homeless people. Basically both of these presentations were very informative and brought up two very commonplace issues.
