Final Project! Medical Moreau  

Here is a preview of our initial project we did together about Looking Backward…   And here is a summary of our final project proposal….   And finally, our final project, linked below! https://iris.siue.edu/scalar/an-analysis-of-looking-backward/index So yeah! That is all!

I have always enjoyed working in pairs, I don’t think I have ever had a terrible experience working with others (Hope I didn’t just jinx it). In class it seems most people have the same goal, which is to pass the class. Although I have worked with people who did not always hold up their end of the work, but I usually just try to remind of a deadline or time frame so they feel more accountable for their portion. If they are still struggling with their part I may try to offer some help and that will typically get people running, because you are making them do it! The…

Let’s be honest – group work can either be the most delightful or most agonizing experience. We all have to go through it whether we like it or not; we have all had times where we pray for a project to be individual, but then the professor says the dreaded, “And now I’m going to put you in groups.” I believe the finished product of a collaboration can turn out well if the collaboration itself is not a fair or delightful experience, even if this may not seem necessarily equitable to the one doing all the work. I also believe, however, that a finished product can also turn out badly…

Gephi was definitely the most challenging tool I have come across in this class so far. I found it near-impossible to be able to even be able to download it on my laptop, as I ran into several error messages when trying to open it. It falsely told me I did not have the most up-to-date version of Java, and when I could open it (once in every blue moon), it would immediately close the second I clicked on something. When I finally got it to work (shout-out to Bill for using his computer whiz skills on my laptop), I became intimidated by all of the tedious, detail-oriented work it took…

Chapters 1-3 by March 27 Chapters 4-24 by April 1 Chapters 25-end by April 3   For research, Gabby will find 5 sources (3 novel related, 2 DH related), and I will find 5 sources (3 DH related, 2 novel related).

Reading: March 25     Chapters 1 – 14 March 27     Chapters 15 – 25 March 29     Chapters 26 – 35 March 31     Chapters 36 – 44 Sources for Articles and Tools will be complete by class April 1 I must do extra research to verify any differences between versions of Journey to the Center of the Earth that may exist other than the names of the main characters being different.

In every class I’ve taken, when group work or collaboration is mentioned, there is always an audible moan of fear and contempt. I’ve slowly begun to not fear collaborative projects as much. There’s more to learn from working with someone than alone. The benefit of having a partner is huge. If you’re not sure of a concept, or have an idea that may or may not be beneficial, you can always bounce your thoughts off a partner to get their input. A second opinion, hopefully unbiased, can let you know if you’re heading in the right direction. I’ve found group projects easier and more successful when each team member can…
