Wenig Sauerstoff im Zimmer
Appreciated most of the in-presentation discussions but sometimes felt it got sidetracked
We got stuck too often in discussions during the presentation
The presentation and the interactive parts could have been more intermixed
We spend too much time arguing about terminologies without discussing what to do about differences in intelligence in people at a social level
Didn’t get more time for discussions. Multiple rounds of discussions would have helped
