  1. I have a problem about this discussion. It is no reply to comment. We have to respond even with a single word. If you do that, your discussion will become more enjoyable.

  2. I think there was a moment that they talked too slowly. I think it is the problem because people will become difficult to understand by speaking slowly. I think to think what they want to say before speaking is effective way. If they do this, they will speak more fluently.

  3. I could feel your group’s improvement in voice volume. However, I found that your discussion lacked a summary of opinions. So, it was difficult for me to understand the conversation flow. One way to fix this problem is to summarize the conversation after it. If do so, you can clarify your discussion flow, and we can understand it more clearly.

  4. I thought your discussion had not told why you do not agree with opposite opinions. This is a problem because the person who has opposite views cannot understand what another person can’t accept. One way to fix this problem is to tell how much you are able to accept, and that you have to compare your own opinion with others. If you do that, you will discuss more deeply.

  5. When I was listening to this group’s discussion, I wondered if they were reading the script. I thought that by doing so, they can’t hold a conversation. Also, they can’t enjoy their conversation. I recommend that they prepare a simple memo rather than a full-text script. If they do it, they can enjoy their conversation and find new opinions.

  6. The discussion was lively, but everyone was making too many assertions and asking too many questions. I thought that this needed to be improved because it became difficult to understand part way through who was making what claims and why each one was making them. If the discussion becomes lively, the moderator will suggest that the discussion be summarized once. This will make it easier for the listeners to understand the progress of the discussion.

  7. I think the lack of summary of each opinion is a problem. This is a problem because the opinions are long and difficult to remember. One way to fix this problem is to add a summary by the narrator of each opinion. If you do that, your audience will be able to remember all the opinions more easily.
