Reflection

Overall I was very happy with how our car came out at the end of this project. I think that me and my group overcame many obstacles when certain things either broke or didn't work the way we wanted it to. We worked well together to make our car as good as it could be so that it would meet all requirements and work the way we wanted it to.

Although I think that our project turned out great that doesn't mean that is not room for improvement. Fro example I feel that I need to better plan all of the steps of when we are going to build things so that way I don't get behind of schedule and crammed for time. Also I feel that if I stay more on task it will also help with the same kind of proposes as the one before. If I can do both of these I have no doubts in my abilities or that of my group so I know that we can build and put together a great project. I have one thing that I thought that my group overcame extremely well. When we figured out that our car barely went half of the required 5 meters we only had about three days left on our project. We quickly understood all of the different ways that our car maybe was not getting to the end and the best solution we thought up was that it was too heavy. So calmly me and my group disassemble our cars outside body until we were left with just our frame. We then added on the wheels and tested it again. This time it worked almost perfectly. That was one thing that I was very proud of, because even though our first try didn't work out we didn't give up and we got the end result we wanted.

I feel that I also learned many things about myself throughout this project. To start I learned that I can work good with new people and get out the same amazing product that I wanted. Even though we sometimes didn't agree we would always try to find a comparable solution to our projects. I also learned that I like to be in charge of constructing these kind of projects. I feel really at home and well put together hen I am building something while trying to help out my other teammates. I feel that this is a very important skill that I have picked up and I am glad that know I have recognized it.

In conclusion I feel that throughout the many ups and downs of this project we came out with something that I was proud of and thought was well designed and put together. I know that our project was far from perfect but in the short time span we had I feel we truly did just as good as we could. Therefor I feel I have learned a lot about the subject of our build and about myself with both strengths and weaknesses that I need to build on and also try to fix.
