The learning tool, "Learning Group Team Concept," used in this course, made this course successful for me. I thoroughly enjoyed my team and how we worked together. Through stressful and relaxed times, we came up with solutions and learned a lot about each other. Moving forward as a leader I have a better understanding of the importance of a team and the opinions of others. Thanks Fellas!
Kelly, I agree completely. Through the easy and difficult times in this course we all worked together to ensure we all succeeded. I also have learned an immense amount on the importance of a team and opinions of others!
I agree that the learning group team concept is what made this course successful. I am extremely happy with our team. It was definitely the highlight of the class. We had solid collaboration and picked each other up at different times.
As a learning tool the "Learning Group/Team" concept used in this course was incredibly helpful. I really enjoy working as a team and not as an individual. There were so many times that we were able to work together to create an end product that would have been way better than something we could have done by ourselves. It was very interesting learning about our Disc personalities and then observing those traits during everyday interaction. Different people in the group were able to bring different ideas and perspectives. Our group really took a lot of time out of our day to help each other out individually, especially during the virtual weeks that we really didn't have to do. Each person brought something different to the group and really offered up that expertise when it came up in helping others.
Nate, I also really enjoyed working as a team and not just as an individual. This also enabled me to produce work that I would not have been able to do without all of you. If someone did not believe in group work before this course, they definitely do after. I enjoyed going through this process with everyone and their different personalities, traits, and ideas.
I also enjoyed working with this group. It was impressive to me how helpful everyone was with their time and knowledge. And early on too. I also agree that the mix of personalities was a benefit to the team and made that point in my initial reply. Thanks for all of your help Nate.
As a learning tool the "Learning Group/Team" concept used in this course provided me with the insights and knowledge needed to be successful. Having our group throughout this course enabled me to get a variety of opinions and insights into my thoughts or ideas, as well as support me through our projects. After having this group throughout the duration of the course, I think it is strongly beneficial and is crucial to the success and development of the course members.
Because of this course (and team), I have a deep understanding of the importance of collaboration and team work. And being this is the last STEM response, I would like to personally thank each and every one of my teammates. Every one of you have played a vital part in my growth and achievement in this course, to which I will forever be thankful. Thank you all!
Reed, I agree with you in understanding the importance of collaboration and teamwork in areas of my life that I have never considered before. I consider myself fortunate to have such incredible team members. I cannot thank each and every one of you enough for the help and support you have provided me.
As a learning tool the "Learning Group/Team" concept used in this course forced us to rely on each other’s strengths and figure a lot of the problems out for ourselves. Nothing really felt “spoon-fed” to us throughout this class. There was normally a brief introduction of a topic, a problem given, and we were basically left to figure it out by ourselves. In my opinion, this forced critical thinking and participation from every member of the group. I also think the intentional mix of personalities was a good thing too. It helped aid in getting that variety of thoughts and opinions. Thanks Team Platinum!
As a learning tool, the "Learning Group/Team" concept used in this course is valuable for a number of reasons. The first being, in most professions, even if you work alone, you are still part of a larger team working towards joint goals. This course forces you to rely on your teammates even if the projects are individual. This work mirrors real-world dynamics in that even if working independently, there is a common project that needs to be completed.
Reviewing others' work helps you recognize other people have other ways of looking at the same problems. Perhaps their way might be better than that. It encourages each person to have an open mind and respect others' opinions or ways of getting to the same goal. This also establishes accountability for each person on the team.
Additionally, being part of a learning group helps improve communication and interpersonal skills. You learn how to give and receive constructive feedback and contribute meaningfully to group discussions. These interactions are not just about the content but about learning how to navigate a multitude of situations. Overall, the group learning structure enhances both academic understanding and personal growth.
As a learning tool the "Learning Group/Team" concept used in this course was useful for the team I/we were on. Historically, I am not a big team player. I am used to giving orders and having people follow them. Our team worked well together and I never had that feeling that I needed to just bark an order and have people do what I say. I am glad that I was part of this team. You all are amazing people and I appreciate the time that we spent together. I wish you all the best of luck in your future. I look forward to seeing what you all accomplish.
Brian, I agree with you in that our team worked well together in getting things done. I cannot thank you and everyone on our team for your help, hard work, dedication, and understanding while working through this course.
