Our group met seven times concerning the
Collaborative learning project.
Each time we met, we spent between 2-3 hours working on the
project. We met in several different
places including Schlundt 105, a group member’s house, and a group member’s
dorm room. It was very beneficial
to work with a group for the selection of our article, more people= more
articles, because of more than one computer. Overall the group experience proved that four heads are
better than one. We seriously
considered four different articles.
Conflictual viewpoints were both a help and a hindrance. Also, the work ethic of certain group
members caused more of a distraction than an advantage. It was difficult to find a time that
everyone could meet. Our group
goes to the Wednesday night review sessions together, and studies some together
the night before a test. We all
benefited personally, by interacting with a group. We all agree that we would approve of working on a group
project again.
