Week 8 – CST – 300 Module 8
OLI – Post-Test
This week we had to take the post-test which was a
culmination of what we have learned throughout the course. It started off with
opinion questions where you had to choose whether you agreed or disagreed with
the statement. I compared my answers to the pre-test answers and, although they
are not graded, I believe my answers improved. From the OLI modules, I learned
that you must consider everyone’s opinions and to use conflict resolution
techniques when there is difference of opinions. When someone is expressing
their opinion, you must use active listening and let them know you understood
by repeating to them what they told you in your own words. For dealing with
conflicts, you must use active listening and then formulate an assertion
message to deal with the conflict.

The lecture portion of this class did a great job
preparing a student for group dynamics. We met with our groups on a weekly
basis and worked on projects or assignments for the week. This requirement
forces the students to create a routine of managing a schedule. It also allows
teams to build coordination skills because not every person in the team will
have the same time slots available.
The writing lab portion of the class helped me improve
my writing. Writing two essays, both within only two weeks and along with
multiple assignments, was challenging but also rewarding when completed. The
multiple discussion assignments also gave me plenty of practice commenting on
someone else’s work or opinion. It also taught me to double and triple check my
writing before submitting or posting it.
During our video group project, we communicated
through Discord. Everyone collaborated by taking on a subtopic and creating
slides with audio files. The information on the slides had to be relevant to
the topic and the sound files needed to add up to around two minutes total.
This provided us with a complete video of 8-10 minutes.
Next time, since our project completion was really
close to the due date, I would suggest having a rough draft of the project at
least a week before. This will allow us to have something near completion with
enough time to add or make changes.
These are the links to our research video projects.
