-We were given the task to put in order, from one to fifteen, a list of supplies that would be needed to survive if stranded in the ocean. We first put them in order by ourselves and then put them in order with groups that we were put into.
Personal Prioritization:
#1 - Water - you need water in order to stay hydrated and to stay alive!
#2 - Fishing Kit - this would allow you to catch food and is able to be used over and over agian.
#15 - Rum - This was last because we didn't think there were any pros for it helping you stay alive.
Hard to decide on -
Rum: We were trying to think of how it could help you stay alive.
Team Prioritization:
Similar: We agreed that the army rations and water were high up on the list
Different: We agreed where most of the items belonged in the rankings but the we didn't agree where to put the shaving mirror and whether or not using it for fire would be useful.
Teamwork: We worked well as a team and had fun while working together. We agreed on most things that others said and we worked out any arguments that camne up.
Expert Prioritization:
How did your choices compare to the "official" Coastguard choices?
Our choices were relatively close on some of the items and not so much on other items like the shaving mirror.
Were there any big surprises between the two?
We were surprised that the shaving mirror was ranked number 1 and not the army rations or the gallons of water.
What do you put more weight in, expert opinion or experiential data? Why?
I put more weight in the expert opinion because their opinion is based on experiential data and they have had experiences in these types of situations.
Good job improving your post.
ReplyDelete-The image is very effective (small, so it doesn't impeed the read of the post but it sets the tone of the topic with its dramatic scene).
-The breakout into personal, team and expert prioritization makes this post much easier to get into.
--You used the bold font well under team prioritization. Use selective bold fonts more frequently.
