First climate and beaches are alike, but also clothes (using flip flops and lots of shorts and caved blouses because of hotness) though they seem to have even more chill about it considering it's normal to use pajamas out of home. Australians seems to be very chill and very receptive people, so are brazilians. Some things are better handled there than here though, like fauna preservation and native people inclusion/respect. They learned from their history and keep it in their minds and traditions to try and not repeat it again (contrary to Brazil, who (WRONG PRONOUN) ignores "índios" slaughter and continue (THIRD PERSON SINGULAR) to do it nowadays). 
Australia and Philippines (country that I presented) are not that similar, well, climate is more or less close and they both have lots of beaches, sure, but their english are different, specially because they were colonized by two english speaker (WORD FORM) countries (US and UK). Also, government in Austrlia is much more stable, not to mention they don't have as much volcanos or depend as much in tourism as Philippines. ]]> 2018-06-07 16:55:48 UTC https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266155610 laurabeatrizortellado https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266159864 "Caminho das Indias" might have approximated Brazil to India in terms of showing (often exaggeratedly ) their culture and lifestyle, but we didn't know as much as we might think. 
Of course (we understood already - WORD ORDER) indians are very colorful, respectful people and about their casta system that still has weight in the country, but we didn't know about how much they are important to film industry and techlonogy (SPELLING) field. It was interesting to learn more about that, and also to compare that to Brazil, noting that we aren't influent in those areas at all. 
They also have a interesting, striking clothing with their saris and colorful, full of patterns clothes. Their religion is also fascinating. (HOW SO? THIS FEELS VERY GENERAL).
They are greatly different from pinoy, their cultures, people and costumes, also their economy. India is one of the rising powers in the world, while Philipphines remain(S FORM) a small, often troubled and dependent country, and even in geography they contrast: Philipphines is a joint of islands, and India is a inland country. Both countries have remarkbly (SPELLING) discernible english accents.

My favorite part was about their english and its difference and accent, food and clothes! They could have talked a little more about their fauna since it is so famous though. ]]> 2018-06-07 17:17:39 UTC https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266160350 laurabeatrizortellado https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266161379 2018-06-07 17:22:22 UTC https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266161379 laurabeatrizortellado https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266161565 I watched this sooo long ago, I don't even remember the plot anymore!  (AND DID YOU LIKE THE MOVIE?)]]> 2018-06-07 17:23:05 UTC https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266161565 laurabeatrizortellado https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266161798 It was the most fun (FUNNIEST) and enthusiastic presentation, everybody was interested by their music and we all laughed and enjoyed some bits. All in all I'd say it was the presentation I liked the most, and also, India is a thriling country to know about. 
My favorite part was knowing more about bollywood, their music and their food (knowing already (START WITH I ALREADY....) cows are sacred to them  so they don't eat meat), one sugestion would be for them to talk more about their religion and the casta system. ]]> 2018-06-07 17:24:09 UTC https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266161798 laurabeatrizortellado https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266168362 It's nice to know more about other countries and to practice our english, but; in general, I think it wasn't a very useful unit and also was a bit unfair. Not only we already had tons of similar presentations since high school and so was nothing new and/or motivating, but also the method of evaluation was unfair since it didn't account the ammount of researching and effort we put on it, but more the moment of the presentation which maybe the person wasn't in the right spirit or don't have that good english/master the art of speaking in public. Not to mention, the quiz as an avaliation method to pay or not attention to the presentations is also not that good, because you could sneeze and miss a fact that may be there, and then it's one point less... ]]> 2018-06-07 17:53:28 UTC https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266168362 laurabeatrizortellado https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266180397 2018-06-07 18:55:05 UTC https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266180397 laurabeatrizortellado https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266180470 Hong Kong is not really alike Brazil, in any way. They have extremely distinticve (SPELLING) culture that are (IS) turning greatly diverse in account of the foreigners
that moved there (this might be a little more like Brazil) to do bussiness (SPELLING). They are also intimately close to China, arguably being part of it (there is a big discussion on the matter between reseachers (SPELLING) and also China & USA),  so a lot of interference from it happens. 
Also, their dynamics, both in economy and politics, are vastly different than (FROM) Brazil, they are more structured and are more maleable (SPELLING) in some aspects. 
Their city is very tech high even if they stay attached to their millenial (SPELLING) culture and traditions. 

Comparing to Philippines, it doesn't have any similarities either, even though both are asian countries. Philipinnes, after all, was colonized by two different countries and because of this lost part of their traditions. Both countries have completely different accents, economies, political views and incomes.

All in all, knowing about Hong Kong (and China in general) is pretty important right now given their status of importance in the world's economy and international system. They are also interesting to analyse, both as a power in ascension and as an ancient civilization. ]]> 2018-06-07 18:55:31 UTC https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266180470 laurabeatrizortellado https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266180519 Since I study China in my scientific research I was greatly enthusiastic about this presentation.

The entire group worked well togheter and helped each other with sugestions and corrections to improve our presentation. I happened to be the begginer of the presentation, and while I researched a lot and helped my friends with things, I wasn't that good at the time of the presentation, forgot some things, didn't speak so clearly, could had some improvement. (EVEN SO, IT WAS A GREAT PRESENTATION!)

Comparing the Philippines to Brazil, we (PERSONAL PRONOUN - I!) can conclude both countries has (HAVE) some similarities like the warm welcoming of people, the beautiful beaches, and some political situations like being colonized or having unstable democracies (often interrupted by dictatorships). There is also the social disparity problem, where rich people hold a huge amount of the income and the rest not enough which leads to poverty and misery. ]]> 2018-06-07 19:06:38 UTC https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266182030 laurabeatrizortellado https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266182052 One of the things that harmed the presentation was how late it began, and that wasn't our fault since almost about forty minutes or more were used talking about other stuff at the beggining of the class which resulted to the final presenters to rush, cut their speaks and not show the videos we spent so long researching about. Besides that we did our best with that we had and I can say prodly we worked hard, even being tired.  (DEAR, IN MY NOTES IT SAYS THAT THE PRESENTATION BEGAN 5:10 PM).

South Africa and Brazil has (HAVE) a lot of similarities, some in weather and some not so ok, like prejudice, racism especially. We also have a big black population, and we are 3rd economies who are in ascension. Also, we have close relations, particularly since Lula's government that invested in Africa. Our cities and concentratation (SPELLING) in income distribution are also very alike, and problems like social disparity and poverty (even if both are rich countries) are also comparable. Considering the slavery system we had here in Brazil, we also have a lot of similarities in culture and religion since we have a lot of descendents (SPELLING) (from Africa in general). Although apartheid was something Brazil didn't go through (thankfully), both also have mostly white people in the best jobs and acquiring better salaries. 

There's not much relation to make to Philippines (country I presented), they have different problems, population, culture and income, also government and economy logistics. Though Philippines do have a problem that is also present in most African countries: unstable democracy, often interrupted by periods of dictatorship periods and/or facade governments (which is also present in Brazil, in a lower degree).  

African culture is amazingly rich and interesting, and their issues are important and it's necessary to acknowledge them to solve them, because Africa has plenty of potential. ]]> 2018-06-07 20:20:57 UTC https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266191250 laurabeatrizortellado https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266191282 It was a very nice presentation, and we could see the members was (WERE) putting much effort on it, even being tired and/or occupied with other issues. They were present when necessary and tried to make the best with what they could, even though Africa don't have as much information as other countries, nor as much images or cute facts. 
My favorite part was knowing a bit more about their culture, dances, and political status. ]]> 2018-06-07 20:21:09 UTC https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266191282 laurabeatrizortellado https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266191368 2018-06-07 20:21:54 UTC https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266191368 laurabeatrizortellado https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266191558 2018-06-07 20:23:22 UTC https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266191558 laurabeatrizortellado https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266191903 2018-06-07 20:26:10 UTC https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266191903 laurabeatrizortellado https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266192400 2018-06-07 20:30:46 UTC https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266192400 laurabeatrizortellado https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266192523 2018-06-07 20:32:14 UTC https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266192523 laurabeatrizortellado https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266195474 2018-06-07 21:00:13 UTC https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266195474 laurabeatrizortellado https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266195527 We don't really know much about New Zealand besides they have a lot of sufers, big insects and beautiful beaches.

Well, it turns out they are very chill as a population, much like their neighbor Australia. Their weather is alike Brazilian's (BRAZIL'S), and we both have forests and a considerable native population, but, as Australia, they treat natives with respect, protecting them, contrary to what happens in Brazil. Their food seems to be different to what we think it'd be, and also not so similar to what we eat here. 
Both New Zealand and Philippines are islands, so they do have some similatires (SPELLING), although they are vastly different in general. Their climate, beaches and friendly culture are more or less alike. They do have different ways to speak english and different accents, as different potical (SPELLING) and economical importance and incomes. ]]> 2018-06-07 21:00:39 UTC https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266195527 laurabeatrizortellado https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266195567 It was a fun, interesting presentation, with lots of curiosities, which I like!

First because it's so high tech and advanced in so many areas, but also for being safe and a popular place for investment, being a global commerce, finance and transport hub. It has high education for most of population and a stable governance, all of this (unfortunaly) completely unlike the Phillies or Brazil. They are an asia country colonized by english speakers (UK), so that's a similarity with Philippines. 

The importance of knowing about this country relies on the fact they are central for international investments and exports, being commonly used by in particular China (biggest exporter in the world) to redistribute their products to other countries. Their value to the technological field is also notable, as it is to use their development (including social aspects) as a  "little" country as exemples to some other small or state-cities ones. ]]> 2018-06-08 18:10:32 UTC https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266354078 laurabeatrizortellado https://padlet.com/laurabeatrizortellado/hcafcs65yjha/wish/266354324 Even though it wasn't the smoothest presentation and some of the presenters didn't have the best english, we could see they put effort on it and had nice pronounced voices, which helped understand the informations given.

I loved how you were able to connect all presentations with yours and Brazilian's cultures. 

The videos and gifs were a very nice touch overall, I love how visual your portfolio is!

It was a little bit controversial to read your final remarks, since you mentioned a lot of positive things about the presentations. 

Did you check my rubrics for the presentation? Did you see that some of the items were, for example, how the group might have collaborated and how the group researched the topic accordingly? Those were some of the items that I used to grade the effort you put into the presentation.
