Focus. To perform at a high level, athletes must be fully focused. But what exactly does that word portend? “Focus, although not having an agreed upon definition in the sports psychology world, is used to describe how much attention one is paying, and can include the state of arousal which causes this attention. Focus includes only concentrating on the most important aspects of the game, and blocking out all other distractions”( Cashmore, 2008). Distractions are very common in athletic…
Team/Project Structure It was an interesting learning experience completing the group research project. I was fortunate enough to choose my own group. My group (Trisha Grahmann, Amanda Rodriguez, Crystal Powell, and Danielle Pardo) chose the topic of “First Impressions”; initially, this topic was the main reason why I chose to be in their group. The secondary reason was that the group members appeared to be very intellectual and insightful. Individually, we were able to choose a specific…
important part of any success group progress and so we chose to include that in the assessment of our group and its processes over the quarter. We chose to focus on four of the group assignments for everyone to give their input on: Module 1 Individual Application Activity: Forming a Course Group, Identity Project Medium Approval and Draft Outline, Module 4 Group Application Activity: Group Process Discussion Activity, and Module 5 Group Application Activity: Analyzing Group Culture: The Guild. …

In addition, Jiyeon designed the cover page and made the background of the report be consistent with the style of the cover page. After reading the feedback of the proposal, our group decided to adjust our Final…
In the group presentation of Into the Wild I worked with my classmates Alberto, Gerardo, David, Leslie and Maria. We had a pleasing experience working on this project together throughout the assignment. Everyone choose a topic to elaborate correspondly to our claim which basically claimed our support of McCandless fabricating his own decision to go into the wild without having anything or anyone to implicate his decision. I was pleased to know that the group quickly came to an agreement with our…
Socially group work is often praised. With phrases like “two heads are better than one”, team work seems like the most logical choice for a project. This has not been my experience at Florida State University. When faced with the prospect of another involuntary group project I imagined many possibilities and outcomes. None of which reflect my actual experience with the research I conducted, the way the information was formatted, or my experience with Group 3. Through the pamphlet project, I have…
Throughout the project, our group worked very well together. The groups were chosen randomly, which gave me the opportunity to work with some people in our class that I had not worked with and would probably not worked with them if it was not for this project. On the first brainstorming day when we were grouped together, we started out the meeting with general discussion about the topics that interested us most. I took the leadership role in the group discussion and lead the topics. I helped…

I shall begin my case study from some experiments that how accurately the children could estimate the numbers magnitudes by various aspects of a stimulus. Thus far, my research has followed two lines of inquiry. The first line of study is to identify children’s different…
