I really liked our topic of violence in video games. It was interesting doing research and finding out a little bit more about the past, present, and future of video games and violence in them and the resulting ratings. It was also interesting to find out about the laws associated with violence in video games. I liked that our group was able to come up with a topic, do research, and then independently, put together a presentation about the subject, without us really spending much time together to make it all come together. We brainstormed topics, and then divvied them up and each did our fair share to be able to present a topic clearly and professionally.
1. I think we all did our fair share of research and writing. I feel we each did an equal part. One member received an important section of the presentation, and never showed up to present, or posted on the blog. That was a key part of our presentation to show the levels of violence over the years and what video game was most popular at time to show a correlation between the two. But, as a whole, I feel the other 4 of us really pulled it together, and gave a well-rounded, informative presentation on the subject of video game violence. I would put my own contribution among the most, just like I would put my fellow group members. We all did our part, and made the presentation to the best of our abilities. I would rate my contribution as a 9, and I would give everyone else a 9. Except for the guy that didn’t show up. He gets a 0.

2. I
would remove the guy that doesn’t show up.
Other than that, I would not remove any member. I like our dynamic, and feel as though we
work together well, we are a group that can debate without hurting feelings, we
can also come to consensuses very easily.
We work together well. If I had to add someone, I would want to add
someone that is more knowledgeable about laws in general, so we have a better
point of reference, and aren’t just winging it with our laws. Even though it was a random draw of people
into this group, I am really happy with how it worked out, and I wouldn’t
change any member.
3.
We have no basic rules. We are
just a group of individuals who are kind and respectful of the other group
members ideas. We like to come to
agreements before we put anything in writing or finalize anything. This makes all group members happy, and we
are a better group because of it. No
bickering or fighting or opinions someone can’t get over.
A. Showing up – 9 We can usually
communicate the things we need to by text or email so the active group members
are able to know what’s going on without missing anything or not being able to
contribute.
B. Doing your fair share – 10 We all do our fair share. The work is spread out evenly.
C. Being on time – 9 If the person shows up for the second half of class, generally, that’s when the group gets together, and they can be a part of what’s going on.
D. Responding timely to email and communicating effectively with other members – 10 Some group members rarely respond to emails, but, when it is important, the work gets done…no need to respond in most cases. We really work good in our group in class and get most things done and communicated effectively.
E. Handling conflict among group members – 10 We have not had any conflict in our group. If we did, that may be an issue. But, we haven’t come to that road yet.
F. Being present in the group -- not distracted by outside cell phone calls or text messages when the group is meeting. – 10 No one has done this so far. If anything, cell phones have helped us with our projects and research. So they have not hindered us in any way as of yet.
