Today, I have a student led discussion group. My partner is Lily, and she is absent today; however, she gave me the handout that related to our topic before, so it is helpful for me to present to everyone. There were four student come to my discussion, and I was surprise about Don's appearance. My topic is about Canada's environment; it is also my research topic. Therefore, I have some ideas about the topic. I saw that everyone were listening and taking note carefully, so I was happy and interested to present what I know about the topic. There were few students asked me many questions about the topic, and few of questions that I can answer to them. Fortunately, Don help me very much to answer these question.
In last few minute, I got a lot of opinions from the students about how Canada should protect their environment. I think it is helpful for my research very much, and I can quote them on my paper. Finally, this discussion group helps me to improve my presentation skills, especially my research paper.

Be sure to get the names of the students who spoke in your discussion, so you can use their ideas in your essay (if you want to). I know one girl's name is Grace, and she is from Lindsey's class, but I didn't get her last name or find out anything about her for background (like, where she is from, what she studuies in school, etc.)
I've also been noticing how many of the lectures people are visiting for University Life are about the environment. You should look at your classmates' blogs and find the ones who have visited lectures on these topics. Maybe you could also look up information about the lectures and the courses. It isn't hard -- there's a link on our blog home page for the Division of Natural Science at York. Canada may have a resource economy, but there is also a lot of talk about environmentalism, isn;t there?
