Thinking back over my PBL experience, I have to say that it was frustrating, but overall positive. The frustrating part was the fact that I am not really good with working in groups. I was a bit weary when anticipating people clashing with each other. . Everyone has their own ideas on how and when things should be completed which aren’t always aligned with my own. What really had me worried was the fact that this was all to be completed online This was a huge project, so there was no way to complete all of the work on your own in the time frame given. I have to say that I did all of that worrying for nothing because my group rocked! We all worked together to formulate a plan and stuck to it! Everyone made this experience so much easier than I expected. I am also grateful we had the use of Google Docs to help keep things organized.
I did not fully understand the instructions in the beginning. I was very grateful for the face to face class with Dr. B. He really helped explain a lot of the roles of each group remember. We also got a chance to glance at a few examples from previous groups. After completing the project and reviewing others, I feel we did a good job. The other group’s projects were also very well put together. I think after completing this project, we are all prepared to not only work in groups, but to also help teach others about the tools and PBLs we’ve learned this semester.
