Making Decision

This is the first time I ever had the professor let his students to decide what to do with their test grade. This is very interesting I enjoyed it I like’s prof. idea and I improved my test grade. I learned a lot from this exercise, making a decision is not easy; it’s very hard when 80 students making one decision in short time.

Everybody was shouting and yelling but one of them our classmate I believe his name is Richard, he did good job he went to front and helping out everyone to get together and come up with one decision. Once he got lost the reason everyone making him crazy by yelling, I do understand it is very hard 80 students and one person was helping. If I am Richard I will break as a 4 groups and get everyone opinion or prof. should make a 4 group and one leader in class, so that way everyone get a chance to share their opinion. Anyway we enjoyed it and I wish Baruch every professor should gave us freedom like prof. Kurpis did

Egg Experiment

My group worked well together and I think we went each step in order. Before we started we discussed exactly what needed to be done when we get all the supplies but we came up with a lot of creative ideas and we decided on what we thought was the most effective one. We tried some scenario on how our egg would land in the bucket without break, but our egg broke and our team was disappointed to not get the extra five points. Anyway we had an experience and we had fun too.
