How important do you feel communication is after the Birthday Line Up activity?

Like they say,"Communication is key." It helps to talk and discuss ideas. You will get the project done in at least half the time talking than you would without talking. You can also use symbols and signs for communication, but it still isn't as fast as talking and just saying it.

I feel that communication after that activity was better because everyone liked it because it was hands on. Our specific group did it suffenciently, because one or two people knew almost everyone's birthday.

I feel that communication after the Birthday Line Up activity. I feel that communitcation is very important to do any and exspecail and the activity was very hard to do sinc e we couldnt talk or any thing we had to use our hand to make signs to tell every one what our birthday was because we didnt know all of our birthdays. We also need a leader but we didnt have one and we were missing information inorder to do the activity but with out some one to help us get the information in order to do the activity and so now i fell that communication is very important now that i realize after the experiment.

The group I was in used communication, but not verbally.
We used hand signals to find out when everyone's birthday was and line them up. Although we found another way to communicate besides verbal, it would have been easier if we could talk.

I think communication is very important after this activity because without it we would have never reach our goal. In this activity we could not use verbal communication but we had to use nonverbal communication, such as sign lqanguage and holding up the number of fingers in our date of birth in order to succeed in this activity.

It is important to communicate with others because you need good communication skills in life. It was hard because we couldn't talk to one another so we had to think of another way to communicate. We had to find a different way to communicate so we had to use and signals and had to show numbers using our hands and fingers to tell each other like what month and day are birthday was on. It is good to practice good communication skills

Commmunication is very important because you need to be able to talk to others in order to do something as simple as this. Not everyone knew when each others birthdays were, so we had to use our hands to try to figure the order we should be in. We could not talk or whisper, so everyone had to work together in order to get this done. Communication is the key to everyday life, and i figured out how difficult the littlest tasks would be to accomplish if we could not talk or voice our opinion

I thought that in the birthday lineup communication would have made the activity alot easier. Although we could not talk we still got it done,but the lack of communication made it very difficult. Instead we had to use hand signals which was difficult because everyone was used different ones. I thought that was a good way to show that communication is a very big aspect in life and without it, life would be very difficult.

After this activity, I feel that communication is very important. During the activity, we had to communicate without using words. Since we could not use words, we all were using our hands to communicate. That would have been fine, except we were all using different types of hand signals. I think communication is important because without it there is no clear way to make sure everyone understands. I think we would have done much better if we would have had clear leader who knew everyone's birthday.

Communication holds the key for many things to function efficiently. Without it, you would not be able to express your ideas. When someone has an idea, it may help the situation, if they do not give you their input then the situation may take much longer. Communication alows others to discuss situations and decide on an answer that is efficient. Without communticaion choas would arise, no one would no what was going on between other groups, and many people would try the same things others did that didn't work instead of comming up with new ideas, since they didn't know what others were doing.
