For this assignment we were told to get into groups and create a blog. The group I found myself with worked extremely well together due to each of us working with each other in the past and knowing each other’s strengths from previous assignments. This has enabled the team to work together effectively and efficiently. An example of excellent group teamwork shown by us all was the fact everyone stepped up and said what they were comfortable with doing within the assignment, I gladly stepped up to make a large contribution to blog post one as well as help my fellow team mate with the campaign video by helping produce a script, I also helped contribute the justification why we chose the Makers market. However, when we discussed the overall roles within the group, I felt most comfortable with writing and finding resources and references, this is where I could show my skills and perform to the best. As team we decided that one of us would speak over the top off to campaign video, so we chose our strongest speaker who was comfortable with taking on this role. Overall the group worked fantastic together with excellent communication in and outside of university, with the help of social media this impacted the overall task positively.
Overall working as a team was very positive and we all helped each other when there was help needed. This increases productivity within the group. Once the roles were assigned, we were then able to get on with the work and create this blog on Makers market. Since we all get on really well this increases the overall experience and made the assignment and fun task to complete.
At first when we got told about the assignment I felt rather uncomfortable about stepping up to roles as it was my first time creating a blog, I felt rather set back to present the campaign video but I was happy to help with the script, after seeing the campaign video made and how easy it is to speak, I now felt more confident to potentially step up to this role along with many other roles. With everyone working very hard throughout the assignment it was important we all had our fair share to contribute to the assignment so we could complete our individual goals set at the beginning of the assignment, towards the end we could see that everyone including myself had excelled with the work and completing it to a high standard. Due to this our justification was good as we were all able to come together and present our work to then work together to create the justification.
For future group work I will be pleased to work with the same group as I know they all pull their own weight and produce excellent work. With the help of each other we were all able to improve as characters and writers which helped improve the overall performance of everyone and individually.
