Length: Your paper should 1,500 words (=/- 10%). It should present your interpretations of your group process. The analysis papers are not a group assignment, but an individual one, thus it will necessarily be different from papers written by other members of your group. You will work on this alone, so the rules plagiarism and cheating apply here.
Content: The paper should be a critical analysis that demonstrates your understanding of at least 5 small group theories and concepts learned during the second half of the semester and applies behaviors you observed in your team interactions. Your understanding of communication terms and concepts must be demonstrated in your analysis. You should supply not only a definition of the terms used, but clear evidence through analysis and examples of a deeper comprehension, with appropriate applications and explanations. Especially important in your analysis is the application to your group. This should be descriptive and specific, meaning that you need to use specific examples to back up your application.
Be sure to consider your own role: What did you learn from your small group experience that you can apply to other small groups that you will be a part of? How did this group differ from other groups that you have been in? What would have been other ways to handle the issues? All information in this paper will be kept confidential. I will not show nor discuss your paper with any group members. Consider topics like:
Conflict
Personality Styles
Group Think
Creativity
Leadership
Problem Solving
