Freshmen Research Conference

From this conference I was able to learn more about cooperative learning and how it actually does work within our class. From being in four different groups to separately find information on cooperative learning but yet coming back together to tie in everything as a whole, really conforms to the idea of cooperative learning and it brought out some cons but nonetheless the research project went great. From the other presentations from the other classes, I was able to learn more about how self-esteem which is your confidence in one's self worth and self-efficacy is the one's belief of about their capabilities towards success. We learned how they weren't the same thing but they were related and they can affect a person. From the other class, I was able to learn about altruism which is the practice of having selfless concern for the wellbeing of others. We also learned about different people's experiences with altruism. This conference was a good way to learn more about other topics and how they could in some ways be related to one another.  From our research project we can use this to improve and do better on any future class cooperative projects.
