A busy couple of weeks with grading the first round of collaborative projects and chasing down team members who either neglected to ensure their names were on the materials submitted, or team members whose names were left off that work because they contributed nothing to the team effort. Isn't putting your name on your work one of the most basic things? Sigh.
Even with team reflections as but one component of collaborative projects, it remains exceedingly difficult to get a clear picture of the actual dynamics within learning teams. It almost seems that most undergraduates would rather let a teammate receive credit for no actual contribution to the team effort than rat 'em out to the professor. Mafiosi in training, the Code of Omerta, and all that jazz I guess. Never go against the family, eh?
In any case, here are a couple of shots of last Monday's attire before the weather really cooled off later in the week. Rumpled shirt collar notwithstanding, a reasonably good effort if I might be so bold.
