Findings

Our four tent experiments are completed and the results are in.
  • In the first experiment, the leader and the group were all in pretty good moods. Although, the tests showed that they were all pretty tired. They completed 95% of the tent in 15 min.
  • In the second experiment, the leader and the group were in very bad moods. They were only able to get the poles through the the sleeves in 15 min.
  • In the third experiment, we had the leader act in random and 'bad apple' ways, such as being nonchalant and mean. In this experiment, an individual from the group took over leadership from the leader, even though he was blindfolded. This group finished the tent in 7 min.
  • In the final experiment, the leader was in a very good mood while the group was in a somewhat lower mood. This group also completed the tent in under 7 min. and the moods of the whole group were significantly higher after the experiment.

12/9/09

Notes:
Our group came up against a barrier this week. We failed to think about the fact that our video camera is not digital and that we would have to transfer the mini dv tapes to a dvd so that we can edit and post it. Luckily, Emily's dad owns a computer repair shop and can help us with the process. The challenge is to get it done before the deadline. Emily is going to talk to her dad and as soon as it is done, I am going to pick up the dvd from her and drop it off at denise's house so that it can get edited. Finally, we will post it along with our findings.

Agenda:
Finish blog before deadline.
