Self Assessment
I thought throughout the quarter that I had stayed pretty well on track. As I am an 'older' student, I see traits that some younger students don't have. In all honesty, I am truly trying to get an education and learning fills me up, where other things in my life can't. So, with that said, going into this class I felt excited to challenge myself and really just ready to dive in. I had a great group and topic and not much of a social life to interfere. Much of the excitement I had was related directly with the topic my group chose. I found it much less work since the research process was a truly interesting venture for me. The more I read, the more I got sucked in and the more passionate I felt about Corporate Responsibility. I actually couldn't stop researching and had a hard time drawing the line when it was time to write, that is when I slowed down. I found organization came naturally, and as stated before, content was abound, but when it came down to writing I often procrastinated. I have difficulty articulating and my vocabulary lacks a bit and I feel I could have done better in certain areas of the paper. This is great example of why it can be beneficial to work in groups. Overall, I was pleased with my group. Harry and I are old friends and have established a solid comradery in past classes, therefor working well together and filling each others voids in the assignment where necessary. He is wonderful with words, articulate and EXTREMELY intelligent. I am good and organization, editing and research, so you may see how we may have carried the group paper through to fruition. The others in our group also did well and ultimately 'cared' about the assignment, which to me is the most important thing.
