Additional notes:
Mac was attentive and actively engaged with the group. Even though she missed the class before we presented, she made great effort to inquire about how the first group did and what we can do to do better. She organized the entire brief document checking to make sure we completed the assignment thoroughly. In addition, identified the power dynamic within the conflict and broke down each type of power both Margaret and Mary were employing. She played her character, Susan, true to life.

During the skit, everyone stayed true to character. We all remembered to say those crucial lines that really defined the dynamics within the conflict. The presentation was executed as planned with each member contributing equally. Every group member gave a well-articulated explanation of each conflict dynamic with viable examples from the skit.
Overall, our group vibed well together. There was only one major altercation. I felt stressed out as this was our final project for the class. Everyone eventually contributed a great deal after I did some pushing and prodding to get the process rolling. We could have functioned more effectively if we began the project earlier. It would have eliminated a lot of stress for me at
