APSC 100 Module 1 Teaming Activity: Reflection Creating an anemometer as a team was a helpful learning experience. During the whole process I tried to keep the steps to solving complex problems in mind. At the first meeting with my group, only three of the four of us were there. We had not yet gotten in contact with our fourth partner, as he attended the wrong lecture and was not responding to our messages to him. It did not cause too much of an issue at that moment by not having him at this…

The purpose of this activity was to clean North Pond. North Pond is located behind Notebaert Nature Museum in Lincoln Park (2430 N. Cannon Drive). I attended this event on October 10, 2015.

I found the Sucess Plan activity to be a great way to understand my learning strengths and weakness. My strongest learning styles were Aural (auditory-musical), Physical (kinesthetic), Social (interpersonal), Solitary (intrapersonal). I am an avid music lover, so all music does motivate me to work or study. As far as physical, I am very hands on type of learner or like to be actively involved, such as my online learning setting vs. a traditional classroom (lecture). As for Social and Solitary…
