Decision Making

In the Decision making process on 10/13/10 class, we all students were a part of decision making process. In order to get a better grade, we all had to agree upon the several suggestion made by students.

In the beginning of the process, a male student came up, and tried to manage individuals ideas, but then some people started rasing their voice. eventually many studnets came up in front of the class, then it led people to diconnected with others in the communication.

I think many students had "compete to win" mode. they tried to find a best way to maximize thier benefits. I had a same mode, I tried to share my opinion but then many people came up so I could not express my thougths on the process. so I came up just only to tell the my opinion to the one who wrote the suggestion on the white board. I believe that everybody was behaving based on thier own benefit otherwise we would not get any benefits becuase of no perfect agreements.

some people who got a good score more likely had "Accomodation way" mode because they were not frustrated as much as other studnets who got lower grades.
I also found that some learders had "Compromise" mode. they tried to be mediators so at least they could get something out of the process.
   
If we decided leaders based on votes in the beginning, it would be more effiecient to control the process and maximize the output. even though we got great output in this decision making process, it would have not had same results. It was hard for all students to agree upon individual's opinion so leaders or a leading manager would have to manage the process. all studnets said that it was such a chaos because there were too many people in the front. it made people start acting for themselves but not for all students.
but we had to know that all students had to agree upon the suggestion made by individual students. In order to make the process flow, I believe that if we had a leader, we would work more effieciently
