1. The benefits of working with a classmate / or alone.
I think that there are many benefits of working with a partner. I think this because it would be over all much more easier than being alone. You would have two brains to work on one thing so that you would get things done much more faster. You would not have to do everything, you could do one part and your partner does the other part and you would not have to stress over not finishing in time than being alone. Another benefit is that you could be a gestalt type of person and your partner could be logic person (like Nelson and I) the Gestalt person does the big picture and then the Logic person fixes stuff and adds more information and the very important detail so it would become a well-balanced and good piece of writing or anything else. Another thing is that your partner maybe could get you on task and you won't be distracted. Also your partner could maybe see things that are wrong that you would not be able to see and you might think is right and your partner can explain and can help you fix it.
2. Challenges / obstacles which you overcame (tried to overcome).
I think that we had a few challenges on finally finishing it. One example that we had to overcome was how could we put in this really cool clip that we found on iMovie onto another iMovie. After lots of perseverance and a lot of tries, we finally cracked it and found a way to put the clip in. Another example was that we were running out of time and we had not done much because we had been fixing all the small details. How we fixed this problem was that we did what we really needed to do, then we finish up all the other small things. The last example was that there was not enough pictures and we could not record all of our lines and we had to finish fast. How we solved it was that we first made the pictures really long like 20 seconds or more then we first did what was our number one priority which was to finish recording and after we did that we added more pictures and finished everything else and we luckily finished in time.
3. New understandings that you gained about yourself.
I think that I learned that I am very stubborn. For example when we could not put in the clip and Nelson said do the pictures I was very stubborn and kept on trying until I got it in the end. I also think that I am more relaxed with a partner. I think that it is more relaxing because you won't have much work than being alone and that you simply will not stress because you know that your partner got your back and you have his/hers. I also think it is easier because your partner can specialize in one thing and you in another and it would be easy to solve each other problems and we did not have to stress on things. The last thing I learned about myself is that I am quite good at using Mac Books or technology. I think this because I solved a lot of things that involved technology. The main reason is that I could do lots of tricks on iMovie that we needed.
