Making Decisions

During the class, which I unfortunately was unable to be a part of, there was a mad dash to become the person in power. Everyone had their own opinion on what to do and how the curve for the test should be. When, in fact, the best way to make a decision is having the group do it together in a cool manner.



There was 1 leader who people didn't agree with at first and, because the results on the exam were not very positive; everybody tended to have their own opinions on how to improve their grade. The professor asked for a "reasonable" suggestion, and having one reasonable person keep order would have been the ideal situation for all. Luckily the 100% agreement on 10 pts for the Extra Credit Assigment along with a curve saved the entire class and taught us a valuable lesson, work as a team and get what would be the best alternative for all.

I would have personally volunteered either to be the leader or help people compromise in an unofficial capacity to try to make sure there is at least SOMETHING that is agreed to. I regret not being able to attend that class.

  1. Greg i agree with you that because some of the students were egotistic we could have easily not get anything good results but at the end we did turn out with a great curve that most or even all students benefitted.
