Group processes

Overall, I am very satisfied with my group members; each of us has contributed many efforts on the projects assigned with different talent. With the aspect of the Final Deliverables project, Jiyeon showed her excellent formatting skills when she combined our works to a complete report. 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…

way I normally do things as like I said in the last journal, English is not usually a group project class. I have greatly improved my communication with the team which is the key to success when in a group. Even though we have done previous projects with each other, there is always room for improvement in communication which I think we have all worked well to get better at. Some difficulties that we as a group have faced would be mainly finding a day in common with each other, and the person we…

This group was a small discussion group facilitated by Ellen and myself. The purpose of this task group was to get opinions from the members about our topic. We carefully planned the structure for the group discussion by creating a nonthreatening environment, which allowed the members to feel free to talk openly and give their opinions. We encouraged the participants to engage in the conversation with the other members and facilitators. I felt we were structured and directed but also allowed…

was easy and smooth. Moreover, we did not have any problem about the times and dates for our meetings. The requirement for this group project that we had to meet three times before the due date. That was not a big deal for us. The schedules for our meetings were on Wednesday night and Thursday night around seven pm. We decided to meet at library because library has the group study rooms. At there, we could talk and discuss about our project. On the first meeting, everyone came on time. We…

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…

previous week in my ENGL 160 class our professor gave us first group project. The project is about to write a summary for book “Weaponized Lies”. We have 3 groups and each of them takes one chapter of the book and writing summary for them and in the end of the next week we are going to submit full summary for the whole book. I’m in the 3rd group and we cover 3 chapter of the book. I developed a strategy for everyone who is in my group. Our chapter is “Evaluating the world” it’s consists of the…

time on my computer. However, Yoselin was super understanding and we used text messaging to have the most efficient conversations about our project. As for group work, I am usually against the idea because I tend to be an introvert who wants to have all the control of what is being submitted. It is sometimes difficult for members of a group to have equal responsibilities. However, working as a member of a team is essential in healthcare. Being able to divide the work and collaborate with peers…

Collaborative Midterm Presentation Process Paper The old proverb, “Many hands make light work,” comes to my mind when I reflect upon our collaborative midterm presentation. At the outset, it became apparent that we all have busy lives with many responsibilities. However, once we began to contribute our thoughts, the work became more manageable. Consequently, the project actually became enjoyable. Our team created an informative and interactive Prezi presentation which added to the ambience…

As I move through this semester I am learning more and more that teamwork is needed in almost every area of the student affairs profession. If you would have asked me a year ago to draft a conference proposal I would have said it only took one or two people to complete the task needed to submit a good proposal. The last month has changed this previous mindset though, as I have found it takes many dedicated individuals to help draft a good proposal. I decided to work with Rachael Kowbel who is…

projects and we all appreciate each other's efforts. Group project is a work that needs to be done together. It is impossible to complete without any one. Even if everyone has their own assignment to do, we still finish our group project perfectly. We discussed our user research in lab and I discussed with them through message after class. I usually discuss details of the assignment with them in order to write a best one. The first group project we finished is Project Problem…
