CH.11: The Forum

If I had to choose one specific format for group presentations, I would choose and prefer the "forum" because the whole idea about a small or to even large group, is that people in the group get to be heard, and through the forum format and technique, there is a moderator who choose who gets to speak however the fact that people do get to voice their opinions and comments and have their voices heard. The speakers get to present and support arguments as the text mentioned and they get to ask questions based on what was stated by the other speaker. There are time limits however I believe it is important that people get to be heard in a group discussion because not everyone gets to speak in other formats such as a panel or in the colloquium or the symposium. With the panel, speakers get to make claims and arguments that others part of the group also may agree with and to be able to have that time to speak for others who are unable to speak for themselves and take a position in what was being stated is imperative in communication in a small group to a large group.
