Group Work Reflection [Due: Tuesday April 2nd]

Ryan and I worked well with each other. We had a lot of the same views, and also ended with the same summary together. 

Positives(+)--> Group work has a lot of positives. It allows us to work together and get our ideas out of our head. Sometimes saying things out loud really changes our views some times. It also let's us get opinions from our peers and also it lets us hear advice from others. We also get to hear their ideas and see if they change ours. We can help our group members as well. Sometimes working through other people's views helps with our own. 

Negatives(-)--> But like any positive, it also comes with negatives. Group work makes some people hold back out of fear of embarrassment or even just merely being to shy. We may be too focussed on our group product instead of our individual thoughts and then we lose our own opinions. 

INTRO- The intro is important to the story and I like that they made their one pager interesting. They added a lot of color. Apple really did break the conformity and crossed a technology barrier which is an important part of the introduction but also the article as a whole which was a good call on their part for adding it to their one pager. 

THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK- New technology keeps consumer interest. They brought up that people believe that whatever the advertisement is that it is good for them. They asked the question- "Does Stein portray the ad as a movement towards a revolution or does it go back to the idea of consumers being subject to brainwashing?"I really don't know how to answer that question because I'm still too up in the air about this article. I don't understand it.
