Another fun class activity we experience in Management was trying to come up with something that everyone has to agree on to help boost on first exam grade. Since majority of the class did poorly, "worst class average" according to Mr.Professor. Everyone went crazy throwing their own ideas out, it was an amazing time watch people panic. No I am not evil.
We had half an hr to come up with something to agree on. Someone in the room first came out and try to lead the class, I think he did a pretty good job if he wasnt so kind, he shall have told some people to shut up some to sit down some to calm down, to regulate. However I notice that he feels everyone has a equal chance to speak but as a leader for the class please generate all the ideas in your head and come up with one that benefits the class the most.
I tried to go up but didn't see a point because it was already chaotic also we were at the level of persuading some of the classmates to vote yes, however i came up with something different after I generate all the ideas thats out there in my head. I believe the professor wants us to learn not to be a **** about our grades. So why not fix our mistakes and get half what what you get wrong??? I believe this is the best idea to benefit the whole class. However when this was brought up to professor already turned it down.
Nevertheless it was another fun time that you won't see anyone be sleeping in class.

Planning!!!
Planning is actually harder than what you expected. I always thought I always have full control of all situaitions that occur my life. Except this activity we did in class proved me wrong.
We were told to create a egg protection plan in a group if your group successfully dropped an egg ten feet from the group without break the egg. Your group will get TEN EATRA points on the first test. Everyone was so excited and maybe because of the high incentive everyone went insane. It was hard to organize the people we have in our group. It was hard to identify the group leader at first until about 10 minutes into the project the group kind of have an idea who is asset to the group and who is just sitting there.
We first assigned someone drawing the pictures and doing all the paper work thats was told, then as a group we generated ideas and filters ideas but it was hard because everyone had different opinions and we really didn't hvae enough to explain or to persuade them why their ideas didn't work. It was mean to say i guess thats what the realaty is "No! Next."
When time is up for planning we didn't know excatly know the role of each individul so i handed all the straws to the only females in the group, knowing female have better hand skills maybe because their hards are smaller. Then i know i shouldn't be touching the tape because my heads sweat. And we have someone to hold onto the egg. The main purpose have that person to hold the egg was to have him shushh but still feel important, movtivating each other was very important at times.
However i realized it was way too many hands interracting. So we had one manage the all whole structure while one voice tell him what to do. At the end we failed, but it was funny seeing all the groups cheering and laughing at the groups that failed, great class experience.
