During this partial we only had one collaborative activity in which we used the concepts of the two modules that we saw.
In this collaborative activity we had to apply our knowledge in constructions of real life. We could choose from several ideas, (like to do a conic chair, a solar cooker, or a lamp) we chose to do the lamp. In the beginning we had a very crazy idea, and really cool, however as the due date came closer and all projects started to hit us (besides of the fact that I had a concert and a play) we had to adapt our idea to something much smaller.
We did gave in the activity at the due time, but some elements were missing, although we had the idea our concept wasn't well applied.
Even though I did my share of the team, I feel I didn't involve enough in this activity. It could've been better if me and the other co-workers helped more Ana Isa at the time of building the lamp.
At the moment of dividing the work we had some roles very clear, but Adrian wasn't involving enough and he never asked what would he do or in what he should help or which was his role. I was quite mad and had to do something extra work to organize him with the team. To be honest we somehow changed a bit the roles. Because the engineer (Me) made the design as well as the calculations. The designer (Ana Isa) chose the materials and did the circuits and connections for the lamp. The secretary (Samara and Adrian) both helped with the content as well as joining the parts. In fact the role of the leader was not very present and Isa, Samara and I were all collaborating and helping each other to organize and make the directions. I would believe that the only teammate I had a complaint was Adrian because he didn't involve enough.
At the moment of defining the objectives Isa, Samara and I decided to stick to the ones in the rubric. Still some problems surged and also Adrian wasn't very clear with the objectives, I had to explain several times and make sure he was including everything.
Because I failed to involve constructively Adrian to our team, I can't say I managed to create a collaborative dialogue. However I was very pleased to hear the ideas that Samara and Isa brought to the team. Specially Isa who was very enthusiastic about the lamp work, and she kindly offered to do it herself.
