Learning Journal entry # 3

This has been a very hectic week, at least for some of you. Not all classes have someone running for President or other important roles in the Students' Union :-)
Unfortunately, that has also meant some disruption in the Group Work Presentations because our schedule was turned upside down and some of you were simply not there to listen to and support your colleagues :-(
Anyway, tomorrow, the last presentation(s) will take place and you'll also take a Test/Progress Check so we can all understand if this work was really fruitful and according to our expectations.

In the meanwhile, here are some cues for your next Learning Journal entry. Please, post it on your blogs/sites, or hand it in by Wednesday, 21st.
My advice: write a text/tell a story that somehow answers (some of) these questions instead of answering each question individually.

What made your work difficult?
What made it easy? What unblocked it when in a deadend?
Did you feel the need to organise your group better?
Did you sometimes feel let down by other group member(s)?
Were tasks evenly divided?
Was it difficult to keep focused?
Are you afraid/do you feel guilty of laughing and having a good time when in class, in the group? Is that compatible with keeping focused?
Is it helpful to know you don't have to worry about organising/bringing materials/worrying about time/worrying about having everybody involved .... because you've divided roles and you know someone in the group is responsible for that?
DID YOU FEEL YOU COULD NEVER HAVE DONE THIS WORK ALONE? Why?
