Today we discussed the first eight
chapters of Tuesday’s with Morrie by Mitch Alboom. It talked about a student
who lost contact with his favorite teacher after losing all the values that he
had taught him. A student named Mitch who had become addicted to work and was
married with no kids and Morrie. A university professor, who had a terminal disease, knew his purpose in life and loved talking philosophically . We got some values and
ideas from the book. How we should be direct, honest and to the point just like
Morrie had been in the interviews. Examples of the values in the book were sticking to your
ideas and culture and to live life. I learned from Morrie that one shouldn’t be
afraid from death.
After talking about the book we
also discussed about our two commercials. We started to think about our ideas
for both the positive and negative values. We decided to use pictures, clips
and maybe photos in a sequence for our commercials.
In our group, we all collaborated equally and all gave ideas about the book and
commercials. The group is working well and we were able to finish out
calendar/plan. We already set up the Facebook group and are ready to set up our
Google Docs. We separated into roles, which were—Nicole is the writer, Jenny
will work with the technology and I take care of the agenda and staying on
task. Having an equal role in this group, I believe that we will be able to
work together and produce a very good commercial.
