Bad Guys Scene Scenes
400 words
Alfred Hitchcock's North by Northwest This movie
was pretty interesting. At first, I didnt look
forward to completing this assignment, but once I
started watching, I was very interested. The
dialogue was clever, but the music was a little
bold. I would say it was cheesy but that probably
isnt the way to say it artistically. I noticed
there were strong beats and drums for climatic and
intense parts such as the fight scenes. Softer
music for the calm, dont-worry-everything-is-safe
scenes. I think ...

Social Psychology On Group Experiences
380 words
During my experiences working in groups I have
found that there are various factors to consider
when group productivity is the desired outcome of
the group. Some of these factors are: social
loafing, evaluation apprehension, considering the
personalities of each group member and the
creation of social norms. Social loafing is the
tendency for one or more members of the group to
under perform and benefit from the work that other
group members put in. Evaluation apprehension is
the fear that other...
