“When I saw the scores for the presentations, compared to others, I was surprised to see that our group’s scores stood out. I was also a bit proud of course. In the coming days a few classmates commented to me on how good the presentation was. I was flattered by and thankful for their comments. Since, however, I’ve been asking myself “was our content better than other groups? ” I don’t think that I can say yes. ” 23
