Avoidance & Accommodation
These are the ways I used in the discussion over what to do with the 1st exam result.
why I chose this is because :
- I was happy with my result and not really interested in the topic. I thought those who needed to fix their test results would have more interest in this and therefore they could decide whatever they wanted.
- By joining the discussion, I thought I would just make it more complicated. As someone in the class said, I think less number of people is easier to manage.
- I was discouraged because some people did not respect others. There was a leader trying to organize, but a few people ignored the rule. They spoke up without raising their hands, though there were people who were patiently waiting to be pointed to speak up. Also, some people were so opinionated that they would not listen to others.
For example, 1st 10 min just for brainstorming the ideas. ( no criticizing at this point)
then, next 15min to eliminate the choices by reasoning and so on.
But to do this, the leader has to be a little more stronger because opinionated people tend to lose control sometimes.
What I other way I would choose to do this......maybe collaborating by suggesting this way of discussion.
I am not sure this would have worked but I think at least it would have been a little more organized.

Some people were not allowed to express their opinions, and some couldn't keep themselves from expressing their self-interested opinions. but overall, I feel that we came up with a good result.
en, I agree with you that the time was really limited. However Im really glad that at least the whole class figured it out an option.
I agree with you that, we should respect others during our discussion and also we should use time management wishesly. And i believe that everybody should able to speak out their voice, and we should listen to them even we don't interested on it.
