STORY WRITING

We were divided into 3 groups and asked to sit facing back to the white board. In each group one of the team members was given a white board marker. Our task was to write a story with a good ending. Each student can write one word at a time. There were four rounds and we were not allowed to talk with the team members. And had to make it quick. So each one had to run to the white board and write a word. We ran to the white board, just read the story and suddenly wrote what we got to our mind.

It was so difficult to predict what the other wanted to say. Even miss Sarasi changed the order of the team members in the last round. At last we got very complicated unbalanced stories which they were funny to read. But no any organization.



 What I realized was it is easy when we develop small sentences. So that we can make a meaningful story. It is really hard to do a group activity without discussing to each other. Different people think in different ways. So it is not easy to work on another one’s plan without discussing or without knowing about the plan. Communication is something very important when we live in the society and work with lots of people.Sometimes we may get half done projects to finish or else we may have to leave with a half done project to another's hand. So what shall we do to make it convenient for others? We should communicate. As software engineers we can leave comments in our codes so that anyone can carryout the work. There should be a method or a common way we declare variables in a project. We have to listen to other’s ideas and choose the best one. Team work is efficient and joyful when we have mutual understanding. 

Mistake that we made:


We all hurry to finish the game first but we didn't carefully read words that wrote earlier. So in our story there were two words that didn't matched and it was the reason that our story missed the continuity.

Lesson from the session:


Without any conversations / less of conversation  with our neighbors, it's very difficult to do a work even a small work, and if  we managed to do it, then it should not be a perfect one. So the healthy and meaning full conversation is very important between us.

PAPER PLANE

Software Engineers became aeronautical engineering

2018/06/01

This is the first activity that we did in our first PPD session in June. All the students of our class were separated into two groups. There were nine members in our group. First what happened was our madam gave 6 yellow papers to our group and 6 blue papers to the other group. The task was, we asked to make planes as much as possible by use those papers and  the other important thing was, after the time out two members of each group wants to throw the planes over the boundary line to get points.

Group members:

Prasanth
Ramakrishnan
Minoltan
Aashik
Dulith
Deshanjali
Hirushka
Sujithra

At the time of planing to build plane

At the beginning we got 5 minutes to plan the strategy and then thirty minutes to execute the plan.So, in the first 5minutes we made a sample plane and threw it for trial and then we started making the planes.At the end, we were able to make only 29 planes while our opponents made 36.

When Building Aircrafts 😆 :

 

I am and Aashik became pilots 😆,We represented our team and tried to through the planes over the line and first we started badly but after that we realized what we want to do and finally we were able to through planes as much as possible. But Unfortunately the other team beat us.

Mistakes that we realized :

• not everyone took part in making the plane and we were divided into sub groups among ourselves.
• we couldn't make make more planes within the given time although we had papers remaining.
• we made many fouls when throwing the planes amd our planes were wasted.
• The most important is we didn't take the activity seriously.

Lessons we learned at the end of the session :

• while doing some work,our concentration should be in that work.
• being ITpeople ,the most important thing is we have to plan well before starting a project and finish the project within the given time.
• team work and participation is a must in our field.
• learning to get use if the resources available.
