Reflection on Essay #3

#1 For this essay our group interaction was ok I guess but could have been a lot better. To begin with we really didn't actually start writing the actual essay until the Monday before it was actually due. This was mainly because over thanksgiving weekend we never contacted each other with what we wanted to have done. Then when Monday rolled out we did assign each person to do a certain task and that caused some problems as well with what was done when it should have been. Overall I think that our group interacted fine just each individual person had some sort of issue somewhere along the line that did cause problems.

#2 I don't think my group used the contract one single time though out this essay. In fact I completely forgot that it was there until this day. However now that I look back at it I can use it in my process or grading my other group members. I think that the contracts as a whole was a good way to try and keep our group organized it is just that we never really used it which really is just saying bad for my own group but whatever.

#3 Our wiki did help out our essay a lot in the long run. That is mainly though because Angi found tons of articles and sites that when we looked back at the wiki we were able to find information that in the end only made the essay better and stuff. I think that using the 4 person wiki group however was a bad thing because in a 4 person group like that there is always going to be those people that don't contribute as much cause more of the work load to fall on someone else.

#4 I think this essay as a whole did cause me to progress more. One thing that I know I improved in was that for the first time I think that I was actually able to find quotes that truly did work to improve the end result of my essay. I also feel that i was able to better follow the rubric for this essay but now that I look at it again I see that I did leave out a few things but ehhh whatever. Overall I feel That with each essay I do I do end up improving somewhat with each one, and hopefully that will show up in the final grade as well.
