Paper Airplane Challenges

There are many problems that hinder good group dynamics. We don’t usually have the luxury of picking who we are going to work with on a team; dealing with different personalities and personal agendas are common challenges in working within a team. Other commons challenges like, poor leadership, bad communications, and lack of focus can be helped or eliminated by establishing team roles.

There are many factors altering group behavior and effectiveness, such as decision- making, cohesion and communication (Crocker, 2016). The later has also shown a positive relationship with group task cohesion (Smith et al., 2013), and methods of enhancing intrateam

I find that the challenges of working together in an established team can be that everyone can become quite self absorbed in their own workload and this can result in conflict when the team sent work together as a whole or lose sight of their shared objectives and goals. It can be difficult to maintain motivation and enthusiasm and not everyone may be on the same page at the same time. I genuinely believe that I am lucky as I work in a team where we are open and honest enough to thrash out any issues quickly and as they arise. We also recognise each other’s own skills and abilities and use each other’s strengths to ensure that our team performs to a high standard.

In this case, the new teams are breaking up established social relationships. Developing teams may also lack knowledge and/or the skill set required to fulfil their job role, and therefore may affect the morale, confidence and/or efficiency of the team.

When a team establishes trust and friendships, they can truly work together as a whole. Often times the teams I was a part of lacked in this area of bonding. Some of the girls on my soccer team would bicker behind others back and would also try to compete for

Often, cohesion is viewed from an affective perspective; as interpersonal attraction among members or to the group. However, cohesion can also be envisioned as "attraction to a collectivity" as opposed to an attraction to the individuals who make up that grouping. (Ratzburg, n.d.) It is important that every single member never work against each other but strive to work with each other toward their shared goal(s). Any negative force that threatens the team's success redirects itself into something positive as long as team members share the same purpose. Cohesiveness is a process whereby a sense of we-ness emerges to transcend individual differences and motives (Kinicki & Kreitner, 2004, p. 15). Some of the teenagers in the families did not approve of how their parents were acting on decision making. Since these people were actually neighbors in real life, these teenagers were friends with the other teens in the game. This caused problems because some of the parents were being immature and this caused the teens to rebel against their own family. In certain challenges the teens would not try as hard as they should because they disapproved of what their parents were planning. Finally, one of the mothers talked to them and explained that it was only a game and more than anything they needed to work together as a family first. The teen realized that this was more important and strived to help his team out.

Since you can't expect a new team to amaze when it first comes together, putting together a robust team that functions well was a challenge. The second challenge was the fact that we were all the same age and almost all had the same level of experience, which put an extra burden on me trying to influence the team and make them believe in me and trust me as a leader.

Group member cohesiveness was absent from the group meeting for several reasons, but the primary reasons were due to the fact that the group members did not have a common description of value or structure to the discussion. Each member viewed their own area of involvement within the organization as being more valuable than any other area, and it was this exclusion of other valuable traits that lead the group to begin to clash in such a

The team is assembled and the task is allocated. Team members behave independently, with anxieties about inclusion and exclusion. Their time is spent planning, collecting information and bonding, with an apparent willingness to conform. This can happen whenever new circumstances occur within a group, or when new challenges or projects are set within established

My partner and I been testing how far paper airplanes will go and how long will it last in the air.We been testing many airplanes out,the are planes are called a dart,an eagle,and a glider.The dart doesn’t go that far and it doesn’t even stay in the air for that long.The eagle goes very far the best score we got is 108.5 that was with attachments.The final are plane we was the glider,the glider stayed in the air for 4.33 seconds.So our best one was the eagle.

5. Fold down both wings parallel to the middle crease and about 1 inch away from it. Make sure both wings are even. * I just did a simple over hand throw with every paper airplane and tried to use the same power in every throw.

My intent for this piece is to show how people can move from one part of the world to another. I choose the paper airplane versus a realistic airplane to demonstrate the simplicity and easiness. The red dots represent the movement of the airplane from one part of the world to another. I choose the silhouette of a person's head with different nationality to represent that a person may come from different cultures. The background is black to represent space in which a person has no limits. I want viewers to see the simplicity and freedom a person can have to move from one place to another.

I like to build paper airplanes and I like throwing far in the park i also like the way they fly in the air so I thought that it will be fun to make paper

Paper airplanes give us more knowledge with pitch, roll, and yaw. When it came to building we learned about how precious you have to be with folding and taking measurements/ calculations. Also different models showed us the usage of different airplanes and how each different model serves a different purpose. Lastly, this activity taught me how even though the name “airplanes” might be so broad we can break it into different categories as we did in class(flight time, distance, target) and there will be many models under them. With that being said it taught me that drones too can serve many different purposes and have many functions.
