Reflection

We really picked it up this step of the project, the group collaborated well, and we made a lot of progress. I was able to create a quality output by utilizing my first semester skills. In the future, I intend to continue expanding on this project's success.

Despite the fact that this phase was successful, I still have some work to do. My next assignment requires that I learn more diligently. There were instances when I was disengaged from my group's work and off task. This is unacceptable because I was squandering time that I could have used to improve the project. I must minimize my exposure to outside distractions. I also need to improve my communication skills. I occasionally struggled to understand what my organization expected of me. I either performed what I thought was correct without asking or I waited until someone told me. Once more, this was a waste of time brought on by poor communication. The project will be even better if I can address these issues for the subsequent undertaking.

Even if certain things went wrong, I still thought I did other things well, which is what made this project so enjoyable. I thought my persona in this project was fantastic. I tried to maintain a happy attitude and brought it with me every day. Overall, I thought this step went pretty well and I'm excited to carry this momentum into the next one.
