=**Teamwork**=

March 7, 2007 -- Sandusky, Ohio
Computer Education students today participated in a team building exercise. Students had to successfully toss and catch a nerf ball throughout their group. If a ball was dropped, the cycle had to begin again. Students were asked to evaluate and suggest ways to improve their chances of successfully passing the ball to all in the group. Suggestions were applied and the cycle would begin again. Periods 1 and 7 successfully completed their group with one ball. While periods 2, 4 and 8 were successful in completing 2 balls. Congratulations on a job well done. Here are some of the suggestions that were used during this activity. Let's strive to use these points in our group activities throughout our 12 weeks!
