During this project my group and I learned about the female reproductive system and the endocrine system. Our teacher chose these two systems for us to study and make a physical representation of. We had to present our newly found knowledge to the class by making a 3D model and slideshow. The female reproductive system is a collection of organs allowing humans to reproduce. The Endocrine system is a collection of glands that secrete hormones into the circulatory system, towards the major organs.

During this project my group worked very well and efficiently. Unlike other past experinces this group seemed to manage our time well and we really worked good together. On the other hand there were a couple downsides. One of these was communication. My group lacked in communication because when we decided we would work at home on the project some of the team members were hard to reach or unavailable. Another downside was division of work. Although this was not a huge problem in the beginning it became very obvious that most of the work was done by the same two people. These pits can be very easily corrected and I strive to make myself better after each project. I hope to correct my flaws and learn new things from other people in the class as the year goes on.
