Cohort Learning Advantages and Disadvantages
Cohort learning is not necessarily a bad thing, it really depends on the individual. Everyone is not the same and everyone use different methods to learn or comprehend an assignment. Many times an individual will learn more from the team of peers rather than the instructor. Some people have the ability to fit well into a group and use excellent communication skills (Tisdell et al., 2004). No one was born knowing everything. There always existed a group of people that taught the new born baby knowledge from the beginning of life. Family is a perfect example of a cohort group, sometimes.

This was the first time I experienced the students selecting the team and not having an instructor create the teams. Following the course instructions with finding partners was difficult. Maybe because this was the time of having to ask someone to become my partner.

Sometimes the person is not trying to be negative, it is just the person’s personality. Training new hires for the utility company for twelve years allowed the trainers to analyst many new candidates for the job. I plan to minimize the negative cohort learning listening more and encouraging the other person more. The ability to flow together as a team will help each cohort member with personal development and growth.
Natural Style. I believe that I have a natural style for teamwork and I don’t have a problem allowing others to have the spotlight. There have been times that a classmate or coworker has stolen my work or idea. I simply allow them, I do not confront the person and I do not report the petty issue. I am a very flexible person. I have years of experience and history for flowing well with others in a team. Understanding the principles to work together as a team player aligns with the cohort

Subsequently, not being satisfied with the actions that were being taken by President Dwight David Eisenhower’’s administration, in the 1960’s presidential election, the American electorate elected President John Fitzgerald Kennedy, a first-term Senator from Massachusetts over the incumbent Vice President of the United States of America under President Dwight David Eisenhower: Vice President Richard Milhous Nixon.

Before I had completed any research, my teamwork skills such as communication and listening were fairly established however I would never fight for my ideas and often go along with other people’s as I did not want to be an inconvenience to my peers. I used a questionnaire designed to identify your type of conflict style, how you personally tend to deal with conflict e.g. sharing ideas or discussing ideas (Faculty of, 2011) to see how I work within a group. From this I learnt that I prioritise my relationships with people and my conflict type ignores “their own goals and resolve conflict by giving into others” (Faculty of, 2011). I then made sure that I shared my ideas more often within a group setting. As a direct result of this, ideas that I devised have been used in ensemble and group work which were effective and if I had not developed my confidence they would not have been used.
