I have never been a fan of group projects. I've always been the one to take control; even if my group mates were capable of completing their tasks, I tended to feel that I needed to do everything in order for it to get done. Coming into class and hearing that we would be starting a group project was not music to my ears.
I know that the issues I have with group work are my own, however. I know that I need to learn to let go of control where possible and understand that many student want to succeed just like I do.
I have a good feeling about this project. Knowing I need to work on my own behavior during group work and seeing that my current group mates are all very intelligent, dedicated ladies has me feeling very optimistic. I think I'll be able to use this project to learn more about how to function in a group setting and allow others to contribute.
I'm excited to see where this goes and I think my group will be able to make this a positive experience for all of us.
