Egypt Project Reflections

The in class work that helped me the most in the Daily Life plays and the Pharaoh iBook projects were all of the assignments that involved using the computer.  This was because I was the editor in the Daily Life plays and it helped that I knew how to edit on the computer and almost every assignment we do in class includes us typing, and for the Pharaoh iBook project we needed to type a lot.

I knew very little about Egypt before we researched it and studied it in our class assignments, but afterwards I realized that there is so much to learn about the history of this region. If there was anything more I wanted to learn about Egypt, which I do not think there is,  I would probably have already asked.

I think our group was successful at working together, but we could have done a few things better such as letting group members talk and give more their thoughts equally and for myself and others to shorten the things we spoke about.  Also, I think our group shouldn't have made such  a big deal out of small things, and this was mostly done by just R.B. and me.

On our group projects I think I could do a bit more for the group. If I could redo the project, I would give more input probably do less editing), ask better questions, and be more helpful and respectful to my group. I think we did well on our project, because we not only met the expectations, we exceeded them.

Option #1 
If I had to get cream puffs for my class, I would save up money from allowance or a job. The pros are that it give me things to do and something to look forward to. The cons are that I would not be able to spend any money and would not for a while. It is a solution, but not the best in my opinion.

Option #2 
If I had to get cream puffs for my class, I would make them for my class. The pros are that it would be pretty fun. The cons are that it would take a long time and be a very hard process.

Option #3 
If I had to get cream puffs for my class, I would go to the bakery and ask the baker what I could do in exchange. The pros are that you can save money. The cons are that he might not want me to do anything.

group dynamics

In groups, I normally take the role of editor or over looker. I don't like to talk most of the time but in other situations I can not stop. Also, it is the same for being the leader, I will, or I won't. I sit back and let things develop in front of me or I don't.
I like to take the role of editor because it is mostly revising the work of others and that can help and benefit me as well. This is fun and good so I like it.
I love to work with close friends because it is fun and you can easily communicate with them, those are also the pros. The cons are that we might get a little off topic.
To resolve a group conflict you could either sit back or you could try to have everyone state their problem and resolve it that way. Most of the time i will try that and it works well, but in other situations it won't. Then I would try things that normally would not work because it is the only other ways of solving problems that I know.
If one person is trying to dominate the group or is talking too much and I don't feel listened to I would until they stopped, if they did not stop then I would try to get the attention of the other people in my group.
The most difficult group situation I have been in was when one person would not stop talking and talked over all of us when we tried to say anything.
The best group situation I have been in was when our group was collaborating and we were coming up with good ideas and questions.
