E: The activity I completed over the last two days was about surviving a plane crash in Canada and ranking the items for their importance to survive. We were given 11 items that were essential to surviving in the wilderness. First we ranked the items individually and then we compared with a group and re ranked them as a group. After that we got the experts rankings of the items and then found the absolute value difference between the experts rankings and our individual rankings. Following that we found the mean(average) for our absolute value difference and wrote our average on the board by gender. Last we found out who the ultimate survivor would be and we found that by seeing who had the lowest average.
F: My group would have survivied very well based on the rankings we did for the supplies. When i calcualted the absolute value difference of my groups rankings and the experts rankings the highest difference we had was five. For six of the items our absolute value difference was one or less. The mean for our absolute value difference was 2.27. Our group had the right mind set with almost all of the items except for the crisco because we had that as number nine and it was ranked number four by the expert. Overall my group would have survived very well if we were stuck in this situation.
G: If i was stranded in Canada I wouldn't have survived very well. My mean for the absolute value difference was four. For a lot of the items I had them completely wrong. The lighter I had as number 11 but the expert ranked it as number one. Another item I was very off of for my ranking was the pistol I had that as number two but the expert had it as number nine. This activity showed me how bad with nature and the outdoors I really am because according to this activity I wouldn't have survived very long at all.
