As a Key Club Officer I believe that I would be bringing numerous ideas and leadership qualities that would benefit the club. While I do not have much experience with Key Club, I have vast amounts of experience with volunteer work and fundraising activities.

My group members for the Civic Proposal Presentation were Alexandra Alaniz and Gabriela A. Martinez. I chose to work with them because I had worked with both girls in previous group class assignments. I think we worked very well together since we all expressed our opinions and were open for any change if someone had a different view towards any slide of the presentation. One issue we experienced was time, we all had different schedules that intervened with the times we could meet. In this Civic…

constitution of the United Kingdom has long been a source for debate due to the fact that unlike many other nations the United Kingdom keeps no single constitutional document and instead has an uncodified constitution comprising mainly of Acts of Parliament, court judgments and conventions.

Human Nature in Lord of the Flies Lord of the Flies, by William Golding, is a captivating narrative in which the reader lives through the trials and tribulations of a society set up and run by a group of marooned British teens. Golding believes that the basic nature of the individual is evil. The group ultimately proves this thesis by their actions. The evils of the individual are shown through the actions of the group’s hunter Jack, the murders of two members of the society, Simon…

Throughout our educational years we’ve all had experience being a group member. Whether this was a positive or negative group experience, it provided us opportunities for learning, improving, and communicating with others. My placements during my college years in the Developmental Services Worker program took this group interaction to another level where the significance of being part of team took on a whole new meaning as I applied my education to real life experiences and grew in knowledge and…

She was concerned with both the tasks at hand as well as the relationships with the team members, which takes time and commitment from her part and the rest of the team members (Harris and Sherblom, 2010, p. 228). From the very start, Cileena took charge with getting our Powerpoint setup and making sure that each aspect of our presentation was complete and ready to go…

Once all foods were selected it was my responsibility to calculate unit pricing and price per calorie for fresh fruits, fresh vegetables, butter, margarines, cheeses, and condiments. It was also my responsibility to research unit pricing. I obtain information from all group members and wrote our findings in…
