Team+DEBRIEF+about+PSA+experience

This is where we can debrief about our experiences producing the PSA.

Adelina:(Cohort 10; graduate in August 2011): I enjoyed working with our team members. Even though we had difficulty scheduling a time where we could all collaborate, we were able to create a good video that we can actually use with our students. Getting the video footage and finding a way to share it was tricky at first, but we were eventually successful. Keeping the video under 60 seconds was also a duanting task. I feel we could have communicated a little better about who was responsible for what, but we were still able to successfully complete the project in time. Over all, it was a good experience. Working on this project with my team helped me get through a difficult time and I appreciate all the prayers and condolences sent my way.

MJ (Cohort 10; graduate August 2011): This team pulled together during some stressful times for many of us. I appreciate the dedication and hard work that each of you put into this project. I found the online aspect to be a challenge for sharing video. However, in the process and research, I discovered a zip software call Zip Central that is free. I practiced using it to send our files around. I agree, Adelina, getting the video to the editor was the challenge. I admire each of you for your committment to our project! Thanks!

JA: (Cohort 10, graduate in August 2011, if I finish the externship requirements on time!) I appreciate you letting me join your team in week 3. I feel like we pulled together well to create the video, despite stressful times. I was unable to move for about a week and a half due to a herniated disc, but still managed to turn on my computer. I wish I could have done more, but I am very pleased with the final project! Adelina did a great job putting the video together. Thank you for your committment MJ and Adelina!

Kristie: You guys are AWESOME! This was a very stressful class for me and I don't really know why! I enjoyed working with you guys when we could all get together to work on our PSA. Adelina, you did a great job on the the whole video itself. MJ, thank you for being so understanding with me due to our overload at my campus with new materials. JA, I am so sorry to hear about your back. I feel bad for complaining about my problems at school. I did put on my reflections that I feel you three deserve more credit for our project than I do. I believe you three worked the hardest and put more on the plate than I did. You all did a great job!

Hey, guys! I have to add this... we worked so hard to stay in touch during this process, I have to know... when will you graduate!? Put your cohort and graduation date in after your name in the responses you provided. At 55, I'm living proof that you are never too "old" to learn new tricks! So, I'm planning on coming to Beaumont to walk in August. I sure hope we can meet each other face to face! Have a great year! Good luck in the rest of your classes! MJ
