Course Reflection:

         This was a fun class. I had a funny professor for this class. In this class, we examined and analyzed how groups worked. I learned about what conflict would confront a group of people and what to attract others as a group. My favorite part of this class was we did lots of group work which I liked. We did some group presentations, whole group discussions, and team work. The most useful thing I learned was how an individual views his/her attitude towards a group. I learned how to apply this theory in my real life. Everyone was caring in this class. I would love to take the same professor again.
