Presentation journal

For the first assignment in our sociology class, the presentation went pretty well. It was a good way to start off the semester for me because i never took sociology last year and i found out who these psychologists are and how they contributed to the world of sociology. My Partner (Johnny Bahdi) and I, did the psychologist Abraham Maslow. He was just a normal person, born June 8th 1970, rasied in brooklyn, was an American Jewish Psycologist, went to highschool, than post secondary school, than became a teacher teaching psyology. He started to beocme famous when he made/introduced his theory of the Hierarchy of needs (aka Maslow's hierarchy's of needs). The Hierarchy of needs is basically a triangle built in five levels, the last levels are more imporant than the ones at the top. The hierarchy involves 5 needs, physiological needs are at the bottom (physiological needs are basic needs such as food, water, warmth, sleep etc), than Saftey needs (security of body, employment, health, family etc) than Love/Belonging needs (friendship, family, sexual intimacy) than Esteem needs (self esteem, confidence, achievement etc) than finally Self-Actualization needs ( morality, creativity, problem sovling, acceptance of facts etc). Before researching Maslow i never actually thought about my needs, wants and how i would order them except making sure i have the basic needs of survival, everything else i thought would just be a want. I did learn something by doing this presentation, so it wasnt i waste of time.
