Working with other people is something that everyone needs to know how to do. I believe it's very important for you to have collaborative projects in school because it's the perfect life lesson. Sometimes you might have obstacles by disagreeing with someone you're working with - but it's vital to overcome these challenges by knowing how to work through them. I'm lucky to have worked with many different groups in the past - and the end results have been amazing. It's awesome to have other peoples help as well as ideas! Working together really can become a nice thing.
Work Sample #1
This project was done in English 11 towards the end of the year. I was actually absent when the project was assigned and then placed in a group with everyone else who missed that day. This was a challenge because it wasn't my typical group of friends I would have chose to work with. However, we ended up all pulling together and getting this done within one night! We also received a high grade on this presentation. It taught me that it's okay to work with different people and sometimes unexpected situations work out well in the end.
Work Sample #2
This was such an important project that was due during the end of the year in U.S History. This was worth almost 10% of our grade which could cause a lot of a stress. However, Emma, Adrienne, and I all spent a day together just hanging out and working on this powerpoint together. It was such a fun day and we got lots of work done. It's one of my favorite memories and it made me even more proud of my project! Not only did a good friendship come from this project but also a good grade!
