GLIDES

Ok so as you all know, we recently started this project called glides, which I think is the most challenging thing. Its not that it’s hard to do, but coming up with the content is the hard part. I have recently started to get the hang of this project and I think that me and my group are actually going to do well on this, but I do have a good group. The GLIDES project is based on self teaching and the ability to teach yourself, which in some cases is good because you get to explore anything that you want to, but at the same time it is a challenging thing to do because in some sense you do need to be creative, and it is hard to fully understand what you have to do because there are no guide lines, you just do it yourself. Luckily we do have a little bit of guide lines and a few examples from last year, but it is still something that is challenging to complete. I think that it will help develop certain skills that were not use to using but I still like regular projects better where you are actually assigned something, this is more along the lines of, this is a glides project. Do it.

It also depends on the group that you have. I think I got lucky and got a pretty good group with smart kids who can do the work that they have to do. I think that everyone in my group will do their part in order for us to get a good grade. But for some groups it might be hard because some people are slackers and it is hard to have a good project when no one else is helping or when one of your group members doesn’t do the work. But luckily I have a decent group and I hope that we get a good grade on this project. Even though I don’t like it too much im going to try and get the most out of this complicated project.
