Reflection Of Team Learning

To further understand Belbin Team Role Theory, I, together with four students formed a team and simulated as being authorized by the Songjiang Government Bureau to investigate into the current situation and the prospect of the higher education industry in Songjiang District. Through unremitting team efforts, we successfully demonstrated our findings and recommended several ideas via a formal presentation. Reviewing the three-months-long process of cooperation, I really found this experience of learning meaningful and fruitful. This reflective essay is a conclusion of my sympathetic introspection of the

I find that the challenges of working together in an established team can be that everyone can become quite self absorbed in their own workload and this can result in conflict when the team sent work together as a whole or lose sight of their shared objectives and goals. It can be difficult to maintain motivation and enthusiasm and not everyone may be on the same page at the same time. I genuinely believe that I am lucky as I work in a team where we are open and honest enough to thrash out any issues quickly and as they arise. We also recognise each other’s own skills and abilities and use each other’s strengths to ensure that our team performs to a high standard.

“Teamwork is critical to successful use of talent, skills, knowledge and labor in a globally competitive marketplace. All members of a team and organization have something to share with others and something to learn” (Kaye, & Hogan, 1999). Combined “Learning Team D” has a lot of strengths some of the innate tendencies are that a majority of the team is tenacious. As a whole they seek to get things done quickly. The members all express confidence in their ability to achieve and make things happen. They are able to create a plan of action and follow-up routines. The team is able to take calculated risks when making decisions. The team is able to see things in black and white. This makes it easier for them to delegate and take charge when it is required. Members often downplay

One of the more important skills students will learn outside the classroom is teamwork. This quality can not be taught it must be learned by experience. Members will be on teams to compete in competitions. Students must learn the limits and strengths of their team member if they wish to succeed. This skill prepares students for the team work assignments which will be required in classes, as well as in everyday

In the environment today, it is not unusual to see people working in teams to accomplish certain goals and tasks. During our youth, parents and teachers encourage us through various methods to work as part of a team. Whether a sports team, classroom team, or after school activities, parents and teachers and other authority figures start the introduction of working in teams and teaching the value of being able to work together to accomplish a common goal. As people progress through the various stages of their lives, everyone continues to strive to communicate. Communication is a part of everyday life. It may be overlooked in some areas, but when dealing with a team environment, communication is vital. One

I believed that team effectiveness can be measured by looking at how you and your team members approached assignment or presentation as a group. Working as a group for the first time in a master program can be challenging and difficult at the same time. I brought a lot of things to my team during the process of working together to complete our presentation, but I also had some challenges when it came to dealing with scheduling meeting with my team outside of class.

In this essay I am going to reflect on my experience working as part of a team and the preparation on an oral presentation I had to do in class with people from different courses, as part of the Foundations for Practice in Health and Social Care module. Reflection is educational and is used as a means of self-knowledge and to develop using a process of feeling and learning by thinking about what happened and what could have been done differently. (Rolfe, 2011, p.8-12) I will be using the Gibbs (1988) Reflective Cycle to do this. In this model there are 6 different stages to look at to help structure reflection, the description of the event, your feelings, evaluation, analysis, conclusion and an action plan. There is more than one model

After reading The Five Dysfunctions of a Team by Pat Lencioni, discussing the function of effective teams in class, and completing various team building exercises, I have developed a much better understanding of the importance of a proper team in a business setting and how good team work can produce more efficient and productive results.

The purpose of this Action Research study is to determine the impact of the Peer-Led Team Learning (PLTL) model in a first-year science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) course at Orangeburg-Calhoun Technical College (OCTC). The participant-researcher will implement a Peer-Lead Team Learning (PLTL) model into the course, Electronic Circuits, to strategically support interactions between instructor and students and peers. Quantitative data will be collected to determine if the Model is effective in increasing STEM student-participants’ awareness of the importance of social and academic integration for academic success at the collegiate

Throughout the past 14 weeks, this capstone course has impacted my knowledge about team work, team diversity, team success, and also my topic, solitary confinement, a great deal. I have learned numerous things while working in a team throughout the entire semester. This includes, patience for those who take their time to complete individual assignments, leadership whenever there is a minor disagreement, and how to better work with others by sharing new ideas and thoughts. These factors helps to build a strong team with diversity. Diversity encourages new ideas and thoughts to be pooled around in order to develop a greater and deeper understanding on the topic. Diversity creates many spectrums in which a topic can be viewed based on the environment

When I have to work in a team, I try to reach success with others participants in assigned activities. I do not take the role of leader or follower. I consider myself just another participator, but always thinking about doing everything right and clean. I have always had in mind that teamwork are all those actions and activities that are carried out collectively. In order for there to be an excellent group work, I think is necessary is that the actions are developed collectively. This means that to carry out group work, the existence of an entertainer or coordination is not necessary. The collective performance of an action is sufficient, within the framework of mutual interaction.

I am the second team member. On my part, I am a senior instructor analyst with

In many aspects of our life, it is pervasive to work in a team. No matter in company, school, or another type of team it is necessary to be a part of a team and to achieve a team goal by corporations. People join a team with different personalities, goals, values, beliefs and needs. On the one hand, these differences can be a valuable quality of teams. On the other hand, these same differences inevitably lead to different levels of conflicts as well.

Our first class was very friendly as everyone in the class had to introduce themselves to others based on which teams could be formed. This exercise spontaneously made each of us talk something positive as an individual and what they can bring to the team. I really liked the last part of this exercise; what all an individual can add to a team. Then we had a quick 5-minute session of shaking one another’s hand without talking to each other. Here, we all made a mistake of not shaking the professor's hand as we all assumed him not to be a part of the exercise. Once we formed our team, we had a small exercise of making 15-paper airplane which had to travel a distance of 10-15 feet. This exercise taught us the forming part of the team model to adapt quickly in our new team, help each other and come up with a solution. Here, one team member observed the entire process without giving any inputs. I felt this technique could be used in our daily meetings to get constructive feedback on how the team is working and get rid of
