Meeting Reflection:
On 21st March, Ahmed and Mohammed and I conducted a meeting with our teacher, Hedley Butterfield. Each of us played a role in the meeting. Ahmed was the chairman, Mohammed was the participant and I was the secretary. Our topic of discussion was Water Scarcity in Africa.
All of us have done heaps of research on the subject matter and we had a lot to say about it. The risks, the horrid things Africa goes through in desperate search of water, and the dangers of all the diseases and dirt the water contains, all of which was very devastating to find out. However we all looked for appropriate solutions and recommendations to help minimise these issues. As the meeting began, I was admittedly nervous. But Ahmed eased things out when he started with the talking; it looked like he had a lot up his sleeves to talk about. He was a fast talker, and also very confident and bright. Subsequently the discussion started flowing smoothly. Ahmed showed up some statistics of water shortage on each country, and then he proposed a few ideas like well-digging, and sand dams, which we all agreed on. It was an interesting solution and also very effective and cheap. We pondered on that idea for a bit, and then Mohammed shared his own which was rain catchment system. Mohammed was also very confident with his words; he appeared pensive and very serious about the issue, as though he was really involved in it. We were all carried away with the meeting and began talking about all sorts of things. I believe everything went well, and we all thought this whole thing through and brought up so many good ideas. I started talking about water conservation. I'm not used to being in meetings and talking that much but I believe I did fairly well.
We all appeared presentable and confident, and we hopefully impressed the teacher. All 3 of us have come to an agreement that Ahmed's proposal was the best, and we picked that one. Everything in the meeting went well and smoothly, and we most definitely learned a lot from it.
