Reflective writing:
I’ve always been the one who has astounding ideas and critical thinking, I’ve also wanted to convince people to support me, but I’ve never tried to listen to anyone, instead I generally worked by myself and kept my plans for me. Now in my new school, working in groups and sharing ideas is one of the most important things because it shows you are social, and able to deal with people. My first experience in a band was in the beginning of the year. It was in biology where the teacher divided us to teams of 5, also she gave us instructions. I have now realized that I should start adapting with this new way of working which imposed me to change my work system. Everyone wanted to choose his team members, but that was not possible because the teacher had already decided this. When we knew our mates and received the instructions we started working.
Our investigations was about the typical soil and organisms in Sweden. We had to collect soil layers and plants, measuring the temperature, digging a hole, and drawing a map of our square. Everything was clear and each one got his task and prepared for it, in addition to everyone agreed and did …show more content…

The more you work, the better result you get. Working in a group was a new thing for me, therefore I had to adapt it, and try to make myself a useful member who can help his mates and get help from them in the same time. My team was not the best, and in the same time it was not bad. I’m used to working by myself but I had to adapt the new system of working. Almost everyone in the class did not have team experience before, so first everybody wanted to impose his opinion on the whole group. In spite of that everybody wanted to help, they were arguing about everything, finally we managed to agree with each other. The challenge was not only agreeing, but also not all of us followed what we had already agreed about and because of this we did not collect much plants and

Working with a group of members having diverse cultures, experiences, personalities and skills can result in difficulties. An unpopular choice I made was during my Social Studies 11 course, I was assigned a group report about Pierre Trudeau. I was faced with a dilemma, I had to choose between my friends who were not the most “hardworking” or complete strangers who I knew were efficient and astute. Realizing that my grades mattered I took the risk of teaming up with strangers. We were all strong students and wanted to do well on the report, but we didn’t know one another.

Every time that a group project is assigned I look everywhere in search of hardworking people, but unfortunately this is rare nowadays. I personally do not like working with a group of people, it is a waste of our time for a number of reasons. People are more dependent on one another and expect the job to be done for them without even trying. This affects the way we are now, things are not supposed to be easy and just magically be solved; it defeats the purpose of working together with each other and learning. I agree that more people can serve as a power source for more research, but it still isn’t sufficient enough for those who just act like fools and don’t get their work done; the one’s that are goofing around can distract the rest of the group members and convince them to join the dark

I do a lot of group work but I would always rather work alone because I become more stressed about giving work to others and knowing that the might not do the work. I do better when I work alone and I find it more peaceful On 91its states that you should make all paragraphs as good as possible and only worry about one paragraph at a time. That’s something I should probably star doing because I need to start focusing on my writing and pay attention to my grammar.

Before, and maybe until now, I use to stay on my side, not make friends, and not ask teacher when I have doubts about something. I used to feel scare of making mistakes while I’m talking.

Reflective Observation (Watching) Despite some arguments about the framework at the beginning of the project, my team is very cooperative, and we have the same perspective, since we already had working experience in previous assignments. Our solid team was confirmed when we had a ‘cone dance exercise’ that we can complete smoothly and very fast. As the leader, I facilitated the whole work process to enhance group effectiveness, solve problems and achieve the shared goals.

It was a challenge for me to maintain the order of students without the present of a local teacher. The smile was my the most valuable reward for all of my efforts. After the teaching in the school, our next task was to build a public toilet for the community in a rural village. When we arrive the village we realize that we, as a group of eggheads from a well-known university, were so incapable facing the cement, lime, shovels or anything related to construction. There was mere anything we can do besides easy works such as carrying bricks, delivering supply and watching the local labors doing all the heavy construction works.

How to develop your teamwork skills Know where you are - The best way to assess yourself is to place yourself in team situations through team sports, project teams, and organizational teams for events at your institute. Analyze your strengths and weaknesses - Use the above information to be team-oriented, not group-oriented. Reflect on what you did well and where you need to improve. For example, were you too accommodating with others and as a result, kept your ideas to yourself? Remember, conflict is not necessarily a bad thing, provided it serves to achieve the team goal.

As I look back on the year, I feel that the techniques I have learned and the skills I have developed have improved my confidence in writing. I was able to learn the basics and from there develop my writing skills further. I learned all the necessary steps in creating a well-organized, logical paper but there will always be room for improvement. I started the year with little to no knowledge about how a paper should be properly written and organized. Over the course of the year, however, I learned how to effectively structure a paragraph, how to arrange paragraphs to make my writing more powerful, and how the process of writing a paper feels.

At our first few meetings, team building was key. In an effort to overcome the initial shyness, we took the time to understand and get to know our fellow team members; in doing so, establishing a welcoming and encouraging environment for everyone to share their ideas whist too ensuring everyone felt appreciated. Getting the team to gel was essential for the team to get results. We met at regular intervals, usually weekly, to discuss and reassess our progress. However, finding the time to meet proved quite difficult, between everyone’s busy schedules and with the plenty of other assignments we all had going on simultaneously.
