Few days ago, I made a post about how my course mates and I were put into groups and made to work on the phytochemical screening of some plants. My group and I had to work on the kenaf leaf and fortunately, everything went on smoothly.
So, it’s time for the presentation. The presentation day for this work was scheduled for a Friday and my group members and I made preparations. Our lecturer, Dr Armah and his TAs decided each group would have 15 minutes to do the presentation and also answer the questions asked. Because of how the lecturer in charge is, everyone had to prepare because he calls on anyone to present at anytime he decides instead of sticking to who the group decides to go with.😅
If you’ve been a student and you haven’t taken part in a group work, you hate being called. Am I right?😅
our final work printed and ready to go
I made preparations with my members and we had to be seated before 8am. It was well organized because every group knew when they’ll present but we were required to be seated by 8am.
Although, our lecturer made provisions for us to be seated early and know what we were doing, it wouldn’t be natural if we students didn’t mess up. The first group wasn’t ready when they supposed to and that got our lecturer pissed. He initially said they were done and he’d give them all zero which no one doubted but he allowed them to present after everyone did.😂
The second group started which meant my group would go earlier than expected. We continued our prep outside and asked and answered a few questions of our own.
a group getting ready to present
At the beginning we were all allowed in the lab but because we couldn’t keep our mouths shut, every other group aside the one presenting and the next one was kicked out.
Some people used it as opportunities to take pictures because you might not have everyone around after the presentation. So for a change, my course mates were taking pictures before presentation.
When it was my group’s turn to present, we made our way into the chemistry laboratory. Another group was presenting so we stood at the back and I got to take a few shots. We got to see them present and also hear some of the questions. We weren’t asked even a single one of such questions.
anxiously waiting for our turn
We stepped up to present and we did our job. We didn’t keep long in presenting because time was already far spent and it was clear the panel was tired. 3 people were selected to present and they did a marvelous job. We were able to answer our question too and so we left the lab quite happy. The group suggested we took pictures to remember the day.
My group members and I
One of our members didn’t stay back and so we had to do it without him.
Other groups couldn’t allow us to have our time alone so we had to take with them. @nhaji01 loves the camera😅
Overall, it was fun and educative. Doing this kind of practical for a change felt good.
Thank you.
I did a phytosanitary job in PPRSD MoFA last year, I’m quite familiar with that but I’m seeing phytochemical for the first time (probably because I’m not a serious student)
This thing happened to me once. I was out of campus hustling when my group members were busy doing the project.
When the d day came, I was ready for the lecturer (not for the presentation though 😂) . I pulled up in a borrowed three piece suit and a very very polished shoe 😁
The lecturer upon seeing how ready I was (apparently) for the presentation thought the group appointed me to do the presentation therefore to antagonize our strategy like they always do, he said everyone else in our group but me can do the presentation.
Guy I was soo f happy😂😂 it was a big win for myself and my group.
You guys looked dope btw!
Not knowing Bongo Ideas😂😂😂🤣
Dabli😂😂😂
😂 these lecturers think they’re so smart. Dressing well always fools them.
Never heard of phytochemical screening? What course did you study? 🤔
I read agriculture technology 😪
Then that’s probably why. I doubt you’ve worked on secondary metabolites. Or have you?
Noo.
When I see your coursemates preparing for presentations, I feel so bad for you people 😂😂😂😂.
4 years I’m this school and I’ve never done anything like that
This is wild🤣🤣🤣
May you get some to do. Amen🤣🤣😎
Oh naa. My life is better this way😂
It might also be for the best.😂
Give it a try
😂 this semester especially we were stressed. You guys are very fortunate😅
The school deir some people didn’t come.😂😂
Oh pls pls😂😂
Our aim is to live soft lifes😌😌
You’re already living soft life.
It can always get softer
How soft do you want it?😂
Like a baby’s skin please 😌
It was always good having group presentations especially when you aren't the leader.😂😂😂
No pressure, just add up to the number and enjoy the scores later after it.
Great work. I hope you presented on behalf of the group though?😂
Thanks for sharing
And the first to create a WhatsApp group is always the leader.😂
😂 oh no I didn’t get chosen to present.
This guy bi wise😂
The way these people stressed us for the presentation.😂😂
God knows I had to pose for that picture because I worked for it.😂😂
😂 they really did. Couldn’t even sleep well.
You like the camera and the camera loves you. 😅
You can’t sleep because of presentation.😂😂😂 what sort of student are you?
🤣 a last minute student who is never prepared
You need to change for the better
