#14 Personal Reflection

    Overall I really enjoyed the module teamwork as I got to know my class mates better and make new friends as we were split into different groups each week to do the different exercises. My awareness and knowledge of teamwork issues has increased over the past months. I know the different types of people that can be in a team such as a dominant, shy, lazy etc. I’ve learned that to have a good team and to work together well that there needs to mix of different personalities otherwise people might clash. I really enjoyed some of the exercises such as the marshmallow challenge and the egg drop challenge as it was fun to compete with friends to see who could do better, and of course my team won on both.  Some other exercises were more serious and from some of these I have learned many concepts about teamwork.

I enjoy working in a team as I’m used to working with other people as I have played soccer and Gaelic all my life and I’ve also done many projects in both primary and mainly secondary school. I would prefer to do a team project rather than do one on my own as people have different ideas and some are more creative than others. Also, you can be more motivated when people around you want to achieve the same as you. So, you put harder work in.

    

   I enjoyed doing the blogs as we were able to look at each other’s reflections of each exercises and see what they thought of it.
