American Revolution Project Reflection




     My group was cooperative in the end while we were getting the information. Beau would get the information paper cut and ready, I got the game and the delegates match-up ready, and Clint helped put the board together. In the beginning, Clint wouldn't really do anything, and it was hard to communicate because we were misinterpreting one another's opinions and ideas. This is such as whenever  Beau would say live exhibit, I didn't know what he really wanted to do. I honestly think that the idea of people from different blocks/periods coming together to do a project was awesome. The only thing is that we needed a little bit more of an explanation on how to get the email thread ready. I know that some people would get the idea right off the bat, and other people would forget how to do it right as they were put up to the task. I think that the emails were fun to use, but I would have liked to just share a document with other people and just use that. It just seems simpler to me because people would do their work on their drive, then they would forget to copy and paste that information back into the email thread. I think that if there would have been no teacher monitoring our discussions, then there would have been a lot of joking around on the email. The teacher also helped with making sure that each student got his/her work done throughout the project. I feel like I have learned that being in a group project definitely need some communication. Some of my group members wouldn't communicate throughout the whole day. If they don't tell their members how they feel about the project, then the project won't have 100% effort from all of the team members.(just like when a member doesn't like something and doesn't want to do what the other members are doing and they don't try to work because they don't want to.) I feel like I gave my all and worked really hard to get the project perfected. In this instant, I would say that I would get a 10. I know that Beau and I did A LOT of the work throughout the project. I also know that Clint was playing games through class, so to be honest, I think that Beau and I did try to get the project nice and clean so that the whole group would get a good grade.
