World Issues Conference: Reflection

For the World Issues Conference, I was the grade 12 leader for the "Iran Nuclear Weapon Development". My grade eight presenters were well prepared and took up the majority of their presentation period. They covered the important aspects of the nuclear weapon development in Iran and Israel. They had wrap up discussion questions and they themselves were able to elaborate on questions and certain points. I was apart of the water filtering simulation. I found that this was very successful and that the students discovered the underlying message behind the simulation. The highlight of the day was when Marc Kielburger spoke to the group and also the musical performances. These two events really gained the attention of the students. Overall, I found that it was a very successful day.
