Storming. As time goes on more major issues relating to group roles, responsibilities and tasks will need to be addressed. Controversial opinions will test the patience of some group members. Small clashes of opinion will come about but will be swiftly resolved or ignored. Some members will be happy to start moving through task-related issues, but some will try to stay in the comfort and ease of the forming stage. The severity of conflicts will depend on the organisation’s culture. Members may…

In Lee’s article, Reconsidering Conflict in Exhibition Development Teams, the team structure was egoless. An egoless team structures “encourages a high level of interactivity and communication among project members” (Frame, chapter 3 pg. 91). There is no team leader, decisions are made by the team, and the project product reflexes inputs from all the team members. This is the ideal of an egoless team structure. In the case of Dogs Group, although the structure was egoless, certain members of the…

Sarah You were a little quite on Wednesday in the first part of the IQ sessions but opened up more in the second half. However on Friday your participation was more even throughout. You did very nice board work; I liked how you engaged the entire group in labeling your drawing not because you did not know but because you wanted more people to participate in the discussion. Importantly, few times you went back to the case making connections between discussed material and patients symptoms…

Knowing the times tables and being able to fluently recall immediately is needed throughout the entire year because of PA Mathematics Standards beginning with multiplication of multidigit numbers. There were students in my fourth grade classroom that had yet to be fluent with their multiplication facts, and it was necessary for them to have it down, for everyday mathematics and for the PSSA’s.

everything going on I forgot that still, no one said a word. The only people speaking were the people already in the OA. That morning, we were all separated into groups, and we were all assigned jobs. I didn’t know much about the jobs other groups were assigned, but mine was assigned to trail work.
