Chapter 11 question 1

Distinguish among a forum, panel, colloquium, and symposium as a mans for making a public presentation. Which one would you prefer? Why?
 I prefer this forum presentation over the other three presentation formats because it allows the speaker to interact with the audience and answer peoples questions. I think that Interacting with the speaking is very  important and helps the audience understand the topic being discussed more clearly. This way when a problem is presented there are several solutions being stated by different people that  it could possible help solve the problem. I hate when people come and give presentations and the audience are not allowed to ask questions or give their input on the situation. Maybe the reason  I prefer forum presentation over the  other formats of group presentations is because this is how classes are ran at school. Therefore, I am just used to this type of educational setting. The only down side to this presentation style is that everyone might not receive and opportunity to speak due to the lack of time.
