I was not in class the day the class had the class activity on decision making. But from what I heard from the class after it, there was a lot of chaos. People were yelling and arguing about the grade and what should be done about it. The professor just sat back and listened. At first I found it amusing and didn't know why he did it but after going through the slides I realized that he allowed the class to make decisions, played no direct role in group's deliberations, in other words he was the delegate.
If I was in class that day, I think I would've collaborated with the others. I didn't do well on the test and obviously want the best solution I can get. But on the other hand, I might also just avoid the whole commotion and agree with the majority because I do believe we all want one thing and that is to get a better grade, right? I'm sure a solution eventually will come up where everyone can agree to.

I thought I was the only who absent on that day. Unbelievable. Anyways,I could tell from your blog that you're very optimistic. "I'm sure a solution eventually will come up where everyone can agree to." This is probably one of the reason the whole class became so chaotic that day. Don't you think if everyone in the class could think like the way you think, the chaos wouldn't have happened? Way to go, Ms. Optimistic.
This class was fun you missed the best class of the year. But on the other hand, I feel like this single class through five year on me and almost gave me a stroke. I didn’t get a good grade as well, so I hoped and prayed something good came out of this class.
