Reflection Paper

Collaboration is something we can learn through training. I used to have a personality that I hated to work in group projects. But, when I grew up and went to college, I knew how cooperation was essential in our lives and how a teamwork helps to overcome many obstacles that we face.

Over time my energy and my commitment helped in becoming a true member of the team. I was also able to play with my specific background to raise interest and engage with others. Lastly, I was always careful in using my interlocutor’s code of communication.

As my group and I started to work on the project I thought to myself, being in a group is easier to tackle is big assignment. As we progressed to the end of the project, the feelings I had before begin to settle more calmly and change over time to become more comfortable with the due dates of each part of the project.

Additionally, from personal experience, it can distinctly be proven that wisdom detaches from a struggle. When working on a collaborative project, it’s crucial to feel pride in the work that one has put in. If there’s a feeling of doubt that overshadows the pleasure, it’s practically impossible to be satisfied with the work. The experience of

There comes a point in a person's life when they have to cooperate with others on a group project. The people you work with might not have the same point of view as you or the same work ethic. This a part of life that a person has to deal with sooner or later. Being a lone wolf is simply not enough in today's society.

I did pretty well working with my group. We got our work done and also had a little bit of fun. In the beginning I was working with someone else, but then that person left to work with another group. One of the people in the group I’m in now offered me to join the group and I accepted his offer. Now all of us are great friends and I hope to work together again on another film. I had a lot of fun on this film and working with my group.

I had found out that working with others wasn't that difficult . At first I thought it would not be bad because i'm used to working by myself. The thing I had found out that was difficult about working in a group of people was that making people accountable and improvising and moving on if a group member wasn't there. When I say improvising I mean my group had to change our story because one of our group members wasnt always contributing but we had changed the dance so it could fit the rest of the

I comprehend that I cannot pick my accomplices in the near future. Nevertheless, amid the filming of the music video, I learnt that I ought to dependably pick accomplices that have a common interest, or else it would simply be a cluster of ideas and no constraint. I found it exceedingly difficult to work with my colleagues, since they couldn't have cared less about the music video, and were only concerned about completing it in time, to submit it. To wrap things up, due to my classmates' absence of enthusiasm in this project, I took over four distinct roles. I did most of the editing, some camerawork, acting, and story

When I am doing a group project, I am usually the one trying to do all the work. I work very good alone and tend to feel peaceful when I do things a lot because I know that all I have to depend on is me. For example when I created the double helix made of cake balls I tried to do all the work and I told my partner what to get me, instead of letting them help build it. I do not like when people copy my ideas even a little bit because I wanna be the best and I want to be different. Also when I was in biology, my freshman year, my class had to make a lesson on photosynthesis. we had to pair up with someone and come up with our idea together. My idea was to make a musical video, and my partners idea was to just make a poster because she thought that it would just be easier. I disagreed and said that she could make her own poster and I was make the video myself. When the project was all over with, we had to present to the whole class, and everyone had posters, and i was the only one with a video. Everyone enjoyed it and thought that it was funny. I got a 100% on it and basically everyone else did too. My partner was right about the poster being easier but i felt more proud of myself because i feel like i'm the only one that actually

One incident that frequently happened to me was teamwork in projects. In teams, there are always people who are unwilling to do their proposed work and would rather rely on friends to do it for them. In my case, it was mostly me doing most of the work. Granted the fact that I was good worker, I was not that good in the teamwork department. Maybe it has to do with me and not my friends but I found them to be uncooperative most of the times. In the email and planning of SG50 event, I would appoint them roles such as editing as well as proof checking. Since English was not my forte, I could rely on my teammates to check the English structure for me. In those two assignments, my team kept playing games and not concentrating on the assignment. Even

I always struggled with completing my work due to my desire to learn other things. As a child, I felt frustrated not being able to share my interests or demonstrate my knowledge. I needed assignments that gave me the freedom to explore my own interests while proving that I could do what the curriculum required of me. I needed teachers that got to know each student’s personality and encouraged us to take our education into our own hands. Those factors were what made me look forward to each school day, and what made a classroom feel like a community of eager learners. That is the environment that I aim to create with my

The impact of my styles in terms of interpersonal relations, and group activities I have come to realized that my results were very accurate towards the way I have conducted my life. I have been directing people around me just because I hate to see potential in people or in a project that hasn’t reached its peak or see that it’s heading in the wrong way. I like to take the lead as well as make other people aware of my actions and involve them within our progress so we all can work together.

Working as part of a group, was a lot more complicated than I had expected. Specifically I learned that not every member of the group approaches the project with the same degree of seriousness and interests. Some members of the group, like myself enjoyed doing the research and gathering information on our topic. Other members, hated doing the actual research, but totally enjoyed making the video and webpage. Still other members, chose the dreaded path of procrastination. These were the member who kind of soured me on group work. I felt it wasn’t right for some members to do a lot of work and others

This mindset led to arguments and discoordination- even criticism amongst ourselves. We soon realized that the point of a group environment is to understand and accept the opinions of each other. After conversing for a mere five minutes, we began cooperating more effectively and completed the project on time. Just like in business, breakthroughs oftentimes take place not at seated tables, but over a cup of coffee- when we “let our guards down”, feeling eased rather than stressed. Many may argue that emotion should not play a role in business, but “desire” itself, is an emotion. I would certainly choose to take this risk again, simply because of the new perspective I have acquired. Thus, we should utilise our humanly instinct of desire to achieve breakthroughs and possibly, revolutionary

Over the course of the semester, there has been numerous amount of areas where I believe I have improved in comparison to high school. What has helped me in my writing is the writing class and the in-class writing workshop. The writing class that is located in the Kremen education building has helped me with my writing greatly because in the writing center the person in charge teach us lenses and we apply those lenses to the writing, draft, or reading that someone brings in. The in-class writing workshop has helped me because other students get to read my writing. This is helpful because I get feedback from many students and they let me know what needs to be fixed. A new tool I have been using is They Say I Say. The book is very helpful because of the information and examples it provides such as the templates. I have been applying the templates into my essays and I have seen a significant difference.
