STORY WRITING

STORY WRITING

We were divided into 3 groups and asked to sit facing back to the white board. In each group one of the team members was given a white board marker. Our task was to write a story with a good ending. Each student can write one word at a time. There were four rounds and we were not allowed to talk with the team members. And had to make it quick. So each one had to run to the white board and write a word. We ran to the white board, just read the story and suddenly wrote what we got to our mind.

It was so difficult to predict what the other wanted to say. Even miss Sarasi changed the order of the team members in the last round. At last we got very complicated unbalanced stories which they were funny to read. But no any organization.

 What I realized was it is easy when we develop small sentences. So that we can make a meaningful story. It is really hard to do a group activity without discussing to each other. Different people think in different ways. So it is not easy to work on another one’s plan without discussing or without knowing about the plan. Communication is something very important when we live in the society and work with lots of people.Sometimes we may get half done projects to finish or else we may have to leave with a half done project to another's hand. So what shall we do to make it convenient for others? We should communicate. As software engineers we can leave comments in our codes so that anyone can carryout the work. There should be a method or a common way we declare variables in a project. We have to listen to other’s ideas and choose the best one. Team work is efficient and joyful when we have mutual understanding. 

Mistake that we made

We all hurry to finish the game first but we didn't carefully read words that wrote earlier. So in our story there were two words that didn't matched and it was the reason that our story missed the continuity.

Lesson from the session

Without any conversations / less of conversation  with our neighbors, it's very difficult to do a work even a small work, and if  we managed to do it, then it should not be a perfect one. So the healthy and meaning full conversation is very important between us.
