Peak Oil Group Project Reflection (group)

Throughout the time when we were doing our mock group project, we came to realize certain things. One, we were discussing more frequently than before. We were listening to all the options and ideas given and we developed them until we were satisfied with the results. We were working well within the time frame given, making sure that all the homework that needed to be completely was done and that everyone had completed their specific tasks. But when we looked back at the past couple of weeks, as a group, we realized that we were frequently distracted, often going of topic. We also had the tendency to assign everyone the same homework and that lead to some people not doing anything at all for homework. With the discussions, we noticed that sometimes, certain people would be leading the discussions and not leave any room for others to make suggestions or say their opinions. So to improve ourselves and to make sure that when we do our actual group project, we don't make the same mistakes, we decided to change a little bit. For starters we would make sure that EVERYONE will be contributing to the discussions and that everyone will have a say in what the group will do next. Also, when it comes to setting homework, we would split up the work, getting only some to do the research and to get the others to focus on developing ideas and other pieces of work. And most importantly, we will try to stay on the topic and try not to get distracted. Overall we have come a long way from last year and we have seen improvements. But we still have more to improve on and we shall try our best during this group project.
