What is your strength in group work? How do you use this to actively contribute during group work activities?

During Group work my greatest strength is my ability to include others into the process. I believe to truly understand a concept is to be able to explain it to others. I am generally a very social person I enjoy and work best when I can bounce my ideas off of someone else. During group activities this is a significant aid, as group dynamics are not awkward and everything is fluid. Being a grade younger then all my peers originally seemed like it would be an adjustment, but due to my social skills, I am able to not only work, but contribute with the others in my groups.

How do you prepare for a test? Does this seem to work for you? Are there changes you need to make to ensure your are successful?

To prepare for my test I ensure that all my homework is finished and done to the best of my abilities. Outside of school time, I constantly review previous lessons, taking a look at the previous days notes and trying to understand them. So far, I am not where I want to be. The aforementioned habits, have helped me develop some sort of an understanding of the topics, but I still have a lot of learning to do. A change I can make to succeed in this course is to acquire a peer tutor to review over the concepts learnt in class. I believe this will help me develop a deeper understanding and increase test scores.
