Planning Process~~

We learned the planning process in our last class, and we also learned how to make a plan to achieve our goal. Compare the steps in the planning process to our planning of the eggs – cellent activity, I found out that we did a pretty good job even though our group’s egg breaks a little. Before we plan how to use the straws and the tapes, all the members in the group are trying to reach the goal by not breaking the egg and receive the 5 points for the next exam. By comparing to the step 1 on the planning process, we actually accomplish this step. The step 2 on the planning process, we did a pretty good job by separate the work to everyone, such as who wrote out the information on the paper, who cut the straws and getting the scissor, who is going to tape it, and who is going to drop the egg at the end. For the step 3 and step 4, we also did a nice job, because we plan out several ways to build up the model and make a discussion to see what everyone thinks about the model. After the discussion, we made an agreement to use which model, and we also choose 1 to 2 alternatives for the back up. For the last step, we did everything as we planned, but the result didn’t come out as we expect it. But I think we did a pretty good job, but the bad thing is that our egg crack a little on the top. Even though we didn’t accomplish the goal, but we learned how to make an effective planning to achieve the goal next time.

I think your group did a really great job on planning! You all did what you have to do, and very organized! Even though this time it didnt work, it would next time!! ;)

I believe our team works as a group, although the plan does not succeed, but the efforts that we dedicated to this planning activities is amazing. I wonder, how comfortable we are when we work together without any barriers. I hope, one day when I work with my other co-workers, i will be like the way I work with all of our team members today. In fact, to achieve that probably will take a long time. But, I'll try.

going by what you said i think that your group was one of the best groups in the class. a well organized and close working group. even though it didnt work out this time keep on doing what you guys have been doing and your group will be successful.
