Week 7 Blog

Last weeks class was definitely one of the most interactive, fun sessions we have had thus far. All the activities gave us a really good insight into the importance of communication in group work. I also think that it is all very valuable information that we can utilize as peer mentors. These are also great skills to be able to pass down to our peers that we will be teaching.
The first activity we did with the blindfolds and getting through the obstacle course by communicating with our partners was a great activity that showed us how important effective communication is in being successful when working with others to achieve a goal. Next, we went on to the blanket activity that proved to be a challenge. However, everyone in the group communicated efficiently and achieved the goal of flipping it over.
All the activities gave us a look from another perspective about group work and how to be successful in it. I enjoyed the class a lot and feel like I took a lot away from it.
