• Intro: A brief summary of the activity.
• For this activity we had prioritize 15 items from order of importance. This items would help us suvive at sea until we would be rescued.
• Personal Prioritization: List your prioritization of the items. Share your reasoning on your top 2 picks and your bottom choice. Were there any items you had a hard time choosing a ranking for?
1. A shaving Mirror
2. A 25 liter container of water
3. A fishing kit
4. A Sexant
5. A case of army rations
6. Maps of the Pacific Ocean
7. 15ft nylon rope
8. 2 boxes of chocolate bars
9. 20 Square sheet of Opaque plastic sheeting.
10. A floating seat cushion
11. A small transistor radio
12. A 10 liter can of oil/ petroleum mixture.
13. A bottle of Rum
14. A quantity of mosquito netting
15. A can of shark repellen

• Of all the items I choose the shaving mirror as 1st because it could be used for signaling.
• And the shark reppelant as the last because it is not usefull, and it is proven to be useless.
• And the hardest one to deside was the 2 boxes of chocolate, because it is food, but it will make you very thirsty, and it may melt and make a mess.
• Team Prioritization: What priority did your team agree on? Talk about an item the group ranked similarly to you. What was something the group ranked far differently than you? What was something you and the group ranked similarly? How did your group work together?
• Me and my team got almost the same answers for everything.
•  We had the first and last choice the same.
• We tough that the mirror could be used for signaling planes and any rescue sources.
• And we said that the last was the shark repellent because it is proven to be unuseful.
• Expert Prioritization: How did your choices compare to the "official" Coastguard choices? Were there any big surprises between the two? What do you put more weight in, expert opinion or experiential data? Why?
• In comparison to the coastguard list, we had somethings right, and others wrong.
• We got the first one right.
• But the last one they said, A Sexant, and we said shark repellent.
