Journal # 3:

Reflect in this journal on your group. What are your expectations for group process? What are your hopes for your ability to accomplish the task? Can you identify different styles/personalities that you think might effect how the group functions?

My expectations for the group process are that we will work together as a team and everybody is doing the work he was assigned. I also expect anybody to follow our Guideline which includes to be prepared and to be on time. I hope we will get along and everybody is the same enthusiastic as I am about our topic and wants to learn more about it. Another hope is that I will improve my English writing skills and also learn how to do a bibliography because I have never done one the way it is done at Juniata.

I could already see differences in my group. It is not too much about the different styles yet but more about the different personalities. Some of us are really outgoing and others are more quiet and don´t want to interrupt anybody talking and others are more straight out. However, I think we have a great group and have a good mixture of all tempers and I hope the different personalities will help us to work as effectively as possible.
