RESEARCH

This week during class we began our group assignments which was to research a topic of our choice involving time, location, and sound levels. Our group struggled in the beginning to come up with a topic that could be experimented in a short period of time, that made sense, as well as a topic we could all agree on . In fact to get to the topic that we eventually came up with in the end we went through about five different possible experiment topics. It was extremely stressful to say the least but we definitely figured it out in the end and with a clear topic the experiment later on was a bit easier to conduct. My group and I thought that at first going into the environments we chose would be extremely easy to complete our experiment but, the truth was that wasn’t the case. While conducting our research we had to choose our locations about four different times before our research could support our theory, and because we were a bit pressed for time it started to become a bit frustrating but at the same time we were having a lot of fun doing it. We then had to take a minute and think about the places on campus that might possibly have the most people to complete our experiment and that’s probably when everything fell into place. We also chose in our group the roles everyone would play such as the two people recording the environment, the two people speaking, and lucky for us the app we were using niosh records the exact time the experiment was conducted which made the experience a whole lot easier. I am also really thankful for our group dynamic  it made conducting our research so much easier because we all have many things in common and everyone gets along extremely well with one another.
