Essay Number Two Reflection Post

1) Your General Progress

I am not so sure that I progressed really while working on this assignment in general terms. The idea of the word progress is that at the end of the assignment that my writing and/or writing style had changed a lot since before I worked on the assignment. So, I honestly don't really know that I progressed so much with this assignment. I know that I'm supposed to be writing all these ways in which I progressed, but to be honest if I were to do that I would just be making it up, so I'm just going to be honest and say that I didn't really progress and if I did I don't really know how I progressed.

2) How did your process mesh with your partner's?

My process meshed fine with my partner's. We sort of worked independently on our own parts of the assignment without too much of our processes crossing paths so I think that all in all they meshed well. I personally work best independently, so since my process is an independent process, I would say that it meshed perfectly with my partner's. My partner and I shared the workload of the assignment and I felt that it was easy working with my partner because we were able to work together, holding each other's weight because we were equally willing to put effort into the assignment in order to do well. If I were to assess what my grade on this assignment would be, I felt that I followed the rubric for the assignment really well and that I worked hard. If I were to assess my partner's grade, I would say that she worked really hard on the assignment as well in order to follow the rubric and to earn a good grade. So, I would say that both of us worked hard and we deserved to get the good grade we earned.

3) How do you handle creative conflict?
If you didn't, what made your collaboration work?

My partner and I didn't really have any creative conflict together. Our collaboration worked because we were able to agree together on what our project was going to look like and after we agreed on it once, we just did the assignment and so there really wasn't any reason for there to be creative conflict. Our collaboration worked because we really didn't have any conflicting opinions on how the paper should look. We were able to listen to each other's ideas and decide what we wanted to do from there. It wasn't as though either of us deliberately went out of our way to disagree with the other person.
