My Peer Assessment Roles Versus My Supervisor Expectations

It taught me a lot on how to really listen to those commercials and ads on tv and better understand them. Before when I was listening to ads I really was just hearing a bunch of words but now that I know what I'm looking for they make so much more sense to me. Also I like the fact that i can pick out all the logical fallacies in the commercials now. When we first started the project i really didn't understand those but as i looked for them i realized how easy it is to see them. I also felt smarter when listening to them because of it haha. This project also made me more aware of other ways to look a subjects. I see it's important to listen to both sides of the story before deciding because everyone is really in it for themselves. It also really showed that if as a country we actually worked together we would do so much better then we

The category in which I rated as only good, or a possible opportunity for improvement, is synergize. I believe I scored myself low in two out of three categories because it has been an incredible weakness in the past and one I have been working on for quite some time. While I have significantly improved in this area I continually work on this factor of working better with people by seeking their input. In doing so, I rate myself harshly on this aspect, despite the progress I have made, because I am not as competent as I would like to be.

I also learned a lot about myself during this project. I learned that I am very patient and driven to accomplish what needs to be done. If I just put my mind to it, then I can always finish the task. All in all, this senior project has brought a lot of positive aspects to my

I gained more confidence, leadership skills and team work abilities. It allowed us to stretch ourselves to the

Personally, I believe that both criteria should be taken into account when assessing your colleague’s work. Ideas will fundamentally support your argument, and proper English grammar will present it in a clear, structured way, promoting the fluency of these very ideas. In some extend, one criteria are not detached from the other, since you can have great ideas and fail in defending them, or have great grammar but no ideas to present. Thus, in my opinion, these two criteria are sides of the same coin, and should be taken into account while evaluating peer works.

There are many similarities and differences between my personal skills map from the beginning of the year, to my most recent one. The differences were the areas I did better and the areas I did worse. Areas I did better in were my self-esteem, driving strength and physical wellness. Now the areas I went down on were interpersonal assertion, empathy, time management, and sales orientation. The similarities between my two charts are interpersonal awareness, decision making, and commitment ethic and stress management. For better areas, I will maintain their status and excel in them while my worse areas I will bring them back up. The areas I stayed the same I will bring them up and keep them above my last one.

Though I tried my best to work well with the people around me, it was just something that everyone obviously struggled with and unfortunately there was a lot of room left for improvement. Though I do believe I tried my hardest in all that I did, so I’m happy I achieved at least one of my goals.

If we use the Zenger-Folkman evaluation I received and place it in context with Jim Collins’ Level 5 Hierarchy, we would see that I fall within the “Effective” level of leadership. There are areas that I am strong at and areas that could use definite improvement. An “Effective” leader is one who stimulates high standards and has a dedicated vision. I expect high standards out of those who I work with. I do my best to communicate these standards so that everyone is aware of what I

Besides bringing to the forefront skills that I excel in, the project also taught me a lot about areas I need to improve on in order to succeed in the business world. The Shred415 case taught me a lot about the way I work with others. Looking back to the start of the project I would have to say I took a back seat, letting others lead. I did what was asked of me, but didn't go that extra step. As the

Below the accountability table, the report illustrates a bar graph called “Performance Index Report”. The expected scores for the following indices were: Index 1 (student’s achievements target):60, Index 2 (Student Progress): 32, Index 3 (Closing Performance Gaps):28, and Index 4 (Postsecondary readiness target):12 (2016 Accountability Summary). In comparison, Richard J. Wilson Elementary had the following scores: Index 1: 73, Index 2:46, Index 3: 45, and Index 4: 33 (Accountability Summary, 2016).

It was a big eye opener, learning about how to prioritize the task within a team. I am completely guilty of usually wanting to knock out the easiest task first and save the challenging task for last. I learned the importance of tackling the easy projects last, consequently they do not require using up valuable resources and time. Projects that we are not familiar with or require more time should be started immediately. This leaves time for any snags that come along the way of completion. Setting these goals in the beginning of a project, present the whole team with the big picture. Present the team with a big picture, allows the team to distinguish the priorities of the task. Leaving your team in the dark does not allow

In retrospect, participating in this activity was very enlightening. It allowed me to fully observe interaction of a group. I realized the importance of having a facilitator in a group to enable effectual participation in the group. I observed the shifting role of the facilitator during the meeting. From the beginning when she clarified the purpose of the meeting to when she shared her experiences and encouraged members to do the same, and finally when she gave a closing statement of what was discussed during the meeting and the goal for the next session. From watching, I saw how the facilitator structured the meeting in the beginning when members were discussing among themselves; she put everything in order by saying what needed to be done. I also observed group respect among the members; they all listened attentively to each other without interruptions. Also at the end of the meeting, the facilitator concluded with a statement of what was discussed and

Peer evaluation is a term that gives a description of the assessment progress that allows learners to self-evaluate their performance together with that of other learners. Peer evaluation is a valuable assessment that is required in the organization. Any firm that implements peer evaluation has records of high productivity. The company uses information from the outcome of the assessment to improve on the working conditions of the workers. In addition, learners who are beneficiaries of peer evaluation have the task of assessing the thinking capability of their peer members and measure how their contribution could benefit the organization. The assessment procedure double-checks the capability of all the learners and their contribution to making the company productive. Peer evaluation is a process that involves activities like listening, problem solving and analysis. The activities above help in ensuring that the company succeeds in the implementation of strategies that the evaluator was evaluating. The procedure of peer evaluation is significant especially in the time of sharpening the skills of the workers. As a major role in the company, peer evaluation helps in exposing capability of the worker. The use of the concept in the company assists in giving group members with an opportunity of facing the reality. Members participating in the activity will have the chance of learning new things first from

I was able to connect with others that were in the group and felt comfortable around those people to share what my life experiences were. As I worked with other employees at my jobs, I always took the role of the leader so I was able to explain and train others on how to complete their jobs on time and correctly. Also, as I listened to others gave me better knowledge on how to communicate with others when trying to explain a situation. I learned you have to listen and ask questions to others when they are trying to explain something to you so you can gain the knowledge that you need to complete your task. Even though I went through really tough experiences when I was younger, I would not change anything that I went through. If I had not went through those experiences I would not have become the woman, the mother, and the leader that I am

I also made some friends of different places like Ann from Kerala. In this activity I have learned how to work and manage all the stuff of understanding in the group which is good to learn as in future when I will do a job it will help me to make coordination and manage in the work.
