Meeting Attendees: Wendy Billings, Gustavo Cruzado, Henry Vladimir Gutierrez Choque.
Step 1 – Assign Roles: (you might consider assigning roles, here are a few ideas)
 Discussion Leader
 Note-Taker: Wendy Billings
 Time Keeper
 Discussion Participants
 Reader: Henry Gutierrez
 Editor: Gustavo Cruzado
Step 2 – Read the Group Scenario:

You are a part of a team that is preparing a group project for an online college course. There are
five participants, yourself, James, Daina, Celeste and Sean. You were randomly assigned to this
group and have never spoken to any of these people. It was difficult finding a meeting time that
worked for everyone and everyone is a little bit stressed by the time you all meet in the Zoom
online conference room. The project is due in two days, so the group begins brainstorming ideas
to get it done quickly. Sean takes the role of group leader, because no one else is saying
anything and he is uncomfortable with the silence. James and Daina offer a few suggestions that
are quickly overlooked so they stop participating. Celeste looks like she has something to say but
she doesn’t look like she is going to speak up. After all, James and Daina’s ideas were not
considered. You think you have a really good idea but are now afraid of speaking up. What if
someone perceives your idea as being dumb or it is rejected? What if your idea is chosen and you
end up having to do most of the work? Once the meeting ends you realize that no real work was
completed and now you are feeling frustrated and overwhelmed.
Step 3 – Answer Key Questions
Was the group meeting live?
Yes
Using the scenario as a guide, please answer the following questions as a group. You will answer
the questions and fill out the document together.
1. Whose points of view need to be considered?
Everyone’s point of view
For questions 2-6 your groups answers should draw upon at least one personal example from a
group member’s life.
2. From the descriptions of the group members in the scenario, what can you infer
about how each of these individuals perceive the group project? Share an example
from one of your group member’s experiences to support your answer.
Each individual has a different point of view but everyone’s needs must be taken
into account in order to generate a real image of the project.
When someone is a teacher, it is important that everyone participate in the class

because the Holy Ghost gives each individual a part of the message.
Experience shared by Gustavo Cruzado.
3. What is one way you could get the individuals from the group scenario to
participate? Share an example from one of your group member’s experiences to
support your answer.
Start with an activity such as breaking the ice, so that the members can get to know
each other and thus build trust so they can participate and collaborate.
As a way to meet new people, missionaries carry a picture of their family with them
in that way they can break the ice and meet people who can teach.
4. How do perceptions of other people within a group affect the outcome of a group
project? Share an example from one of your group member’s experiences to support
your answer.
Each member of the group has a different reality and the final result will be able to
integrate more people thanks to the realities of different members of the group.
In our group we are from different countries and we weren’t able to meet because of
the difference of time, but once we did we were able to finish our homework for that
week together. We perceived the best of each one of us and we did well with our
assignment.
5. List three specific things that this group could have done to have a more positive
experience? Share an example from one of your group member’s experiences to
support your answer.
*Ask engaging questions

*Ask direct questions
*Take into account everyone’s response by making positive comments.
In our group a classmate has an introverted personality, he helped the group a lot
when he gave his opinion when we asked him a direct question.
6. What have you learned from your own life experiences that demonstrate how
perceptions can affect communication? Share at least one example.
When a missionary recently arrives on the mission field, he arrives with the theory
that he has been taught in the MTC, but he finds a different perspective from a
person that is already in the mission field and have experience, and that causes a
conflict because both of them have different points of view. What we learned from
that experience is that we must have an open mind.
Step 4
One person in your group will save the group's document and submit to your instructor for
grading. Your instructor will grade and provide feedback for the group as a whole.
