Study Task 8

I found the overall experience of working as part of a group an enjoyable one. It was interesting initially to see how ideas bounce around, and the discussion between individuals brings about the growth of a seed of an idea. Whilst observing and participating in this initial brainstorming process was very satisfying, there were slight problems with the overall experience. Namely, because everyone in the group knew each other pretty well and got along together well, the attitude towards the work was very relaxed. This meant that the development was very slow and we were a little distracted every time we came together to work on the idea. We also tended to overlook the more serious considerations that would have to be made if our idea was going to work (e.g. budgeting/costing/logistics).
