This day was one of the unique days that I experienced in ITMM102. Usually, me and my classmates worked independently and created our own designs through our own skills and techniques in Photoshop and Illustrator. But this time, we created our own designs by group.
Sir Bob gave us the chance to group ourselves with each team consisting of five members. I teamed up with two of my seatmates, and later on two extra members came to complete our group. The first activity was good for 15 minutes. We ranked ourselves from 1 to 5. The rule was to create our own logo design with each member giving a share on the logo. Sir Bob called us by our numbers and each member was given 3 minutes. It was quite fun but at the same time hard since we were not given the chance to plan out our design.
On the second activity, still, we were tasked to create our own logo design with a few rules changed. This time, Sir Bob gave us the chance to plan out own logo design for five minutes. After planning out, Sir Bob, again, called us by our numbers but this time each member was given 1 minute with 3 rounds. It was messed up, mainly because our design did not really go well as planned and that the time interval for each round was too small to even make a good shape or figure on the workspace. But in the end, we all learned our lessons. Sir Bob told us that when we are working in groups, whatever design our teammate gave us to edit or improve, we deal with it even though the design may be better than what you can do or worse.
Right now, I am adjusting to this new approach in our class. I do hope that I will be able to work better with my teammates. Till the next blog!
