Complete the "Winter Survival Exercise". This activity is done individually and in groups. Based on your participation in this exercise, you are required to write a paper that details your experience based on the topics covered this course.

Note that you will want to discuss both individual processes (e.g., your own personality, perceptions, attitudes, etc.) and how that may or may not influence the results of your team, as well as the group processes that contributed to your end result (e.g., group dynamics, communication, motivation, etc.). The paper must not exceed 6 pages. In writing your paper, you may want to consider some of the following questions (note that this is a sample of questions you may want to consider and not an exhaustive list):

• How did the group make decisions?

• How did the individual members communicate with one another?

• What personality factors helped or hindered the performance of the group?

• How did your perceptions of your group members change over the course of the exercise, if at all?

• Did anyone take a leadership role? Was the role assigned or did the leader emerge?

• Were there any power struggles or conflicts among the group members?
