F.E.A.R - Result

I conducted my experiment last week and came up with some interesting results. My experiment was to actually accept this class for what it is and to embrace that and run with it. I am a business student that doesn't get much of a chance to delve into my creative side. Normally my classes are pretty straight forward. I read the chapters, come in and review the chapters, then take a test. Pretty simple. This class though has been a challenge for me though. When I come into the class I don't know what to expect or what we are going to do in class. This uncertainty makes me feel fearful of the unknown.

The reaction of my experiment was what I expected. When I was called on in class I hesitated because I wasn't sure how I was going to present the idea. Everyone had visual aids for everyone to look at and I didn't really have anything like that. But when I was called on, I did say that I was conducting my experiment at that moment. I kinda got laughed at for this which was alright but kind of killed my mode for this project, since the point of it was to let go and accept the class.

My hypothesis was correct. I knew that people wouldn't really notice due of the nature of the experiment. The interesting part about it is that I didn't think about what would be noticed from the lack of an apparent project. This I think although not a an expected reaction, was what I really wanted. When I told the class about my experiment I was laughed at quickly overlooked. At the time I was a little mad, because I was about to go more into the details of the project before I was cut off. Later, I began to think about why and how this reaction could pertain to what I was looking for. Maybe what I was looking for is that the abstract idea I came up with and semi presented to the class was alright even though it got a couple of chuckles.

When I came up with this idea for this project it was off the top of my head and didn't give all the thought about what all was going to go into it. If I were to conduct this experiment again I would change a few things about how I go about it. One thing, is that I would think way more into what I was sure that I wanted to come out of it. I think the reason for the misunderstanding in class was because I wasn't even sure what I was doing, although I thought I did.
