We were also showed the difference between being reactive and practice and the idea that a stimulus creates a choice to a response and how to use that tactic when working on group projects, an example that the speaker used were Pavlov’s dogs. Since this was the first class, we also played introductory games as we could learn each other’s names as if we do not know the names of the people we are working with, how can we be effective leaders?
