What I did in the chaos of Decision Making Process

Among the ways of handling the conflict, I chose to use avoidance. I chose this one because the situation was a chaos. Nothing was going to get done and nothing was being done until the last 10 minutes of the class. Therefore I chose to sit around and observe what others did so I could get something out of this decision making process. Given what I know now, what happened during that class, I would have suggested more different options we could have had: take home exams, open book exams, etc... I also would have proposed to others these options early in the discussion to reach better decision in the end, with better options.By doing this people could have better postion arguing with others who competed to win to make better compromise for everyone. This would have been better because it would have been just for everyone in class and would have provided better options for everyone as well.

Planning Process

Defining goals and objectives were given to us in the beginning of the activity. We were given what to use with chance of testing those items. For step 3 we have made plans to design the straws in certain ways so that only straws that all the damage from the drop. But we only came up with one strategy and worked on it. We did not form any alternative ideas because we were sure about our plan; which came out to be a mistake. We have planned who will be making the design, who will do the straw part, who will control the tape, and who will drop the egg. Last step became nothing like what we planned. The design we planned was not what we made. Everyone was on the making the design of the egg. Nothing went as we planned. We constantly revised our designing during making of it then time was up. Our planning until step 4 was in good shape. When the actual implement of our plan came it was a total failure. For these reasons, I would give 7 out of 10 on our planning process.
