Stereotypes: Group Analysis
My group was called the lizards. It was Briley, Emma, Jackson, Kailey, and I. We did our project about Millennial college stereotypes: reality versus perception. We talked about the academic, resident, and social life of college. Working in this group and projected allowed me to realize that everyone’s strengths come out unintentionally and that you must trust and compromise a lot in a group.
The first thing we had to do was figure out our topic for the project. My group and I made decisions by brainstorming our topic. We all sat together and talked about things we could do. We looked at example videos that were online. Then, we all agreed to doing one topic. We never went through the storming stage when trying to decide. We all argued and

Kailey expressed responsibility a lot. When something needed to be done she would be the first one to say she can do it. She was a very big help in the project. Briley was very focused on making sure that we got stuff done. He would always bring us together if we got off track. Emma’s strength really helped a lot because she was very creative with ideas and knew a lot of the material we needed to know about the Millennials. Jackson’s main strength was communication. He would always be the one to talk to us and double check things. Make sure we are all on the same page. He was not afraid to speak up on things he agreed with or felt like doing. Each one of their strengths played a big role in the group project and it allowed us to have …show more content…
For example, I did not mean to be the leader of the group but my strength of Command is just used to taking charge and listing demands. I have learned that when working in a group you must be very flexible and be willing to compromise your time and stuff for others. I learned that I must trust my grade in others and trust in my group that they will deal with their task with great quality. This group was probably the best group I have ever worked with. I enjoyed working with them and enjoyed doing this project. I was very satisfied with the outcome of this group and the

    My team’s objectives were to raise the awareness of our charity, raise over £1000 and raise as much money as possible and to run successful events. We were given £100 to start our events and had to budget what we spent. We had to decide our individual roles before we started planning any of the events so we all knew what we had to do but this was a bit of a struggle as it was hard to define, in the early stages, who had what roles. However, our team was effective because we all helped each other with different tasks and then all began to found out our strengths and our weaknesses. We all listened to each other and try to make everyone in the team feel welcome and not make them feel left out. For example, When Sandie joined our group it was a while after the team was formed so she may have felt a bit left out but we all tried to make her feel welcome and she took on the role of being in charge of all the health and safety and risk assessments for the event.…

    I conducted a survey of 40 of my peers to find out their first impressions of me. I discovered that people thought I was nice but not naive, bizarre but in a cool and relaxed way, studious and outgoing but yet still laid back and chill, and I am happy to say good looking but (unfortunately) not in a movie star way. People also had the misconception that I was quiet, but by our second encounter, this quickly disappeared as they realized I was the complete opposite. All of my 40 peers now agree that I am an effortlessly loud presence. I would like to change this perception of shyness because it is not who I am. I lead the male portion of my chorus and blast out the solos, participate in class so much that it is almost like I am having a conversation…

    I remember a time in school when we had to do a project with a team of classmates. We were supposed to come up with an idea for a business and set up everything about the business such as the name, type of business, how it would be managed and so on. There were four students in the group and we were able to get many different ideas about what type of business we should have and what the names would be. Each person was able to be in charge of different parts of assignment, and that way no one was required to do a large amount of work in a set time. Although we did get an A, there were some failures as well. Some students in the group were more willing to give input and weren’t afraid to speak up about their ideas. Others had to be pushed for ideas and tended to go along with what the others thought was a good decision even if they might not have agreed. Even when it was time to divvy of the work, there were discrepancies. I particularly didn’t like the idea of giving each person something different to do, only because some in the group didn’t really care about the project as much as others and I felt they weren’t trying their best on their part. It might have been better in my opinion to work…

    We all have encountered some type of stereotype or prejudices. A stereotype that I had to face was age prejudice by me being so young sometimes people don't set the high expectations for you that other people would at an older age because they expect for you to make mistakes. At times my mindset isn't where most kids are at my age. I skipped pre k and I am supposed to be in the 8th grade. When I tell people my age they be like " OMG you are young to be the grade that you are in" this is a perfect example of what I am stating that people sometimes think that you have to be average and can't go over and beyond your years.…

    My belief is that everyone deserves to be respected treated equally despite their skin color, social class or sexual orientation. We should simply treat people the way we want to be treated. People would treat others with disrespect and … based solely on their appearance, without thinking twice how it would feel if that same attitude would be redirected at them. The two theories that have impacted my beliefs the most are social and race theories.People are constantly being mistreated on petty things such as how old someone is or skin color.

    Stereotypes. Stereotypes play a major and huge role today in society negatively and positively. Stereotypes can form truthful and untruthful results that can mentally, emotionally and physically destroy a person, race or culture which we see today. Stereotype is a fixed over generalized belief about a particular group or class of people (Meclod). I chose to write on the topic stereotype because in society today we as humans stereotype one another all the time and do not realize it. Research have found that stereotype exist of different races, cultures, or ethic groups (Meclod). Today our world is so based off what the next person thinks and what they will say and do if something is not done a certain way and it bothers me.

    Growing up in the number one most diverse school in Michigan, I have always had to adapt to the contrasting characteristics of my peers. I see the girl with the name brand outfit, confident, and surrounded by the most of people. I see the shy boy who sits in the corner alone. Different races, different perspectives, and different life styles all create the melting pot of our nation. But, I noticed the fine line drawn between hispanic families and those of my peers. However, these differences were not so easy to accept when I was younger.…

    Stereotypes In Society

    “Wha a gu on?” “Wat’s up?” “Que pasa?” “Hoe gaat het?” Wat’s popping?” “Sak pase?” “How are you?” These phrases all have something in common, that is they are all greetings in different dialects or what is termed “slang.” They all ask the same thing but if you don’t speak the corresponding language or “slang” the average person would not know what is being said or how to respond. In essence if you don’t understand the relevance or parlance you are outside, apart or isolated from those who do. This aspect of cultural stereotyping is the separation of them and us; that is thinking that our norms and practices are distinctly different or superior to those of other groups. Why do we want or need this…

    In the modern age, person perception can be formed in a variety of different ways and be created over an extended amount of time or done in a second. Person perception does not just include forming these perceptions but involves conclusions that we make based off of these impressions. This process can be both beneficial from a survival point of view but can also be incredibly harmful because these impressions can develop into stereotypes and biases that can percolate through societies view of the individual. These impressions can be made through a series of vocalic and kinesics tests and individuals proxemic, and haptic boundaries. Additionally, the individual's past experiences and views on gender and ethnicity play a significant role in…
