Group and Leadership

  • Throughout the task I wouldn’t say someone stood up as a leader during the tasks however there were a lot of people who knew what they were doing and were just happy enough to vocalize their ideas.
  • Many people within the group advised various possible plans in which the group could maybe use and then suggested what the rest of the group should do to kind of put the plan into action
  • I do believe that a few members of the group just didn’t want to put any ideas across because they might have been to shy to share them, however no one was really left out within the group as everyone took their equal part within the task in order to complete it.
  • I personally believe I could have communicated more within the group because sometimes I felt like I was just standing there with nothing really to do once we had completed what we had been tasked to do.

Explaining

  • Our communication as a group was excellent, everyone who had an idea expressed it clearly and we made sure that everyone’s points of view were being heard.
  • The task was explained very clearly at the beginning of the overall task. Someone took the set of instructions given in order to make our den and if any one wasn’t sure of something they then questioned the individual on what was meant.
  • Preparation is definitely one of the 5 P’s our team missed out. Our team jumped straight to trying to build the tent rather than coming up with a successful idea first. However, we did stop after a while and someone came up with a new strategy of how to build our tent.

Environment

  • With the weather, when working with our team our communication had to be louder as the wind was picking up making it harder to hear and listen to instructions or ideas.
  • When in a classroom I wont need to create a louder volume when the children can’t hear me as if I do then that will be classed as shouting!
  • The noise of the environment didn’t distract me as an individual, however if a teacher is struggling to keep pupils attention in outdoor environments, try and move to a better location where there is less noise.

Negotiation

  • Our negotiations were successful to a certain extent. We spoke to another group and told them that their cardboard was essential for our den however our group didn’t even need it! Although we did end up using it as a roof in the end so it was put to good use 🙂
  • The most challenging parts of this task was to get other teams to give up their materials they weren’t using. Lets just say a few were more stubborn than others!
