  1. it was a fun first day of class, the interviews gave us an opportunity to meet and learn a bit about each other. the marshmallow challenge took that a step further because it was a group activity which involved everyone working together towards the same goal so we had to communicate with each other and share ideas about how to complete the assignment which proved useful in many ways. we became better acquainted with one another, we learned from each other because during the assignment, the two architectural students in my group wasted no time formulating a plan and building the structure while myself and the other student in my group still considered how to best approach the task, but they carried us along with explanations and we assisted where we could and the time limit made the task a bit of a challenge but if not i am confident we would have made a very solid structure.
