This quote is true for me. I do enjoy when the group assigns tasks for everyone and then they meet up later to share the information they gathered. This is actually how our groups had to work for module 3. We all did our own part and contributed to the group via Oncourse. I like it when the group works together all the time on some projects, like building a barn in a construction class or something. I do not think groups have to work together constantly on a project about 1880’s presidents. This is a perfect example about working alone until the group presents their information to each other. It is a very powerful group method. It also works on teaching skills.,[object Object],[object Object]

This quote really means a lot. It shows the commitment to education from this student. He wants to have academic success, and he is willing to give everything up to achieve this success. If every student had this mentality, it would make education meaningful. The fact that so many students do not care or try to do the minimum has made education very difficult over the past few years. This is very apparent where I live. Decatur Central has been placed on academic probation by the state because of low test scores and bad graduation rates. The state thinks it is because of the teachers, but it has a lot to do with the students not trying to be successful. Now Decatur Central cannot even start a program like DTP, because they no longer have the money to make programs like it.,[object Object],[object Object]

I think it is very important for a school to have a lot of diversity. The thing I enjoy most at IUPUI is the amount of diversity the campus has. I enjoy meeting students from other countries and backgrounds. Any school that has a lot of ethnic, religious, and cultural diversity should make that a key part of the university. ,[object Object]
