Self Assessment
ok, so this is the first time i have visited this page... anyways

As i shared with you in class i think that more work could have been done on my part, in terms of being able to produce more content. i liked the topic and i thought that it was very interesting; however, i felt that i could not "go off" as much as i wanted to. Since the grades of others were riding on the project i was contributing to, i did not want to make the paper seem unprofessional at that one spot in the paper.

i believe that communication could have been better between the group, as i often did not receive an e-mail or wiki comment about much of anything i posted, asked, or brought up. i also believe that in some way, the project did not seem as important to us as other projects for other classes, so we did not put as much effort into it as we should have.

Other than that, i am really starting to get into wiki, i think it is really useful and while it took me a while to figure out how to use it (several weeks) i think it will come in handy sometime in the future. i might even give my opinion on future analytical writing groups' discussions.

As a whole, i loved the class and i especially liked being able to talk about political, social and environmental issues.

In outline form, if i were the teacher:

1. make the groups smaller (2-3 people in each group)

2. make the students far more forceful in terms of their solutions, encourage them to be "offensive"

3. put more emphasis on using wiki
