Being apart of class 5302 has really been an extreme challenge for me. I feel it could have went much smoother if i was able to be apart of a group. I reached out more than once and was unable to get in a collaborative group to be able to have different pairs of eyes look at my work and give me feedback. I really wanted to be apart and participate in a group but it just didn't happen that way and that ok...I sucked up what i couldn't fix and fixed what i had control over. I didn't let me not being apart of a group stop me, I put my pride to the side and made a promise to myself that I WILL continue with my studies. I being to buckle down after the first week of class realizing that I had to get to work and without me getting to work the work would not get done in a timely manner. Not being apart of a group was indeed a challenge but I made it through with the help of several other colleagues from class 5305. I was in luck well I like to refer to it as being blessed and fortunate because several of my group members were also apart of 5302. Since I was unable to collaborate with a group for class 5302 not that i didn't want too but because it was difficult getting a hold of people...getting no responses left me no choice but to move forward with my work. Reflecting back on the last 5weeks of class i feel i could have done better with reaching out to other groups to see if i could join forces with them. For the most part Ive completed everything in a timely manner just lacked being apart of a group so I'm giving myself the grade of a 78 for contribution to my learning and learning community for class 5302.
