Chernoff Faces

This activity was a strange one for me. I liked the way we could visualize by physically categorizing ourselves, but still no two were alike. I suppose I learned that in terms of classification, there is no perfect way to classify something, as each individual is different. Scientists pick what is most important feature similar to what we did in class, but this can change in an instant. My face stayed exactly the same both times, but my group changed dramatically. Even though it was still based on face shape, what we saw as most important was entirely different. Majors as compared to where we were from. its like comparing the food animals eat vs what kind of home they live in. You will find many similarities between items. and creatures, but also many difference.  How much does classification really matter?  How do we decide what is most important. Overall this activity just raised more questions for me than answers. I did like the interactions of the activity. Questions are something I will always have, and now I have more to look into.
