Group Experience

I am very glad that my two partners were Sonia and Allie. They both made a significant contribution to my group experience. I didn’t know them very well at the start of the year and through the project and class, we became friends and I’m glad that we now hang out both inside and outside the classroom.

Reflecting on the actual project, I think I must say that although the movies we chose were not the most entertaining, my group members and I tried to make the most of it anyway. We laughed and joked about the movies and one time even made popcorn from raw corn kernels to eat while we watched. The three movies my group and I chose (pictured below) were Bicentennial Man, E.T., and Frankenstein.

 

There were times while working on the project, where I didn’t feel like I was on the same page as my partners. Fortunately though, they took the time to explain their thoughts/ideas to me and gave consideration to my input as well. This project taught me that creativity, cooperation and sharing of ideas are important for success in a group environment. It was good preparation for similar group assignments I may find myself assigned to in the real world.
