Individual vs. Team Assignments
The semester has been filled with opportunities to complete assignments both individually as well as collaboratively. I found those experiences with the team to be intellectually rewarding. Through those experiences I engaged in dialogue that required me to at time hold my tongue and allow my colleagues to express their point of view on a particular concept. It was during those times I gained a wealth of knowledge and understanding because their point of view was from a different perspective. Often while completing individual assignments I felt compelled to contact my team member and get their perspective on the assignment. There were occasions where gave into those compulsions and there were occasions when I did not. It was during those occasion that I did not I had to sometimes read and reread information on a topic to gain complete understanding. Overall, I believe that those experiences with the team were experiences where meaningful learning took place and ideas and concepts were meshed.
