"Task_3-6 Reflection"



  1. Why is it important to use teams in PBL?
Working in teams can provide some valuable experiences, which can be applied to one’s real world.  For example team collaboration in a group can be applied to future jobs or organization you might be a part of.  You also get different views and perspective on topics that may have a negative or positive influence on one’s opinion, and no matter what it will turn out to be an interesting discussion.  Lastly, you learn responsibility, trust and patience.
  1. What are some of the problems you see in student teams?
One of the common problems in student teams, are time management and setting up meeting times (online or face to face).  Everyone has busy schedules which makes it harder for everyone to meet.
  1. What strategies can you use to manage conflict in student teams?
I believe the best strategy is keeping an open communication with the group.  Plan wisely and effectively that benefits every member of the group.  If one member can’t meet face to face, then maybe the strategy is, the student would have to submit their part in writing and sent out to the group prior to the meeting.  Keeping an open minded, and figure out others ways, the group can cohesively make it work, is the best strategy.
  1. Did the group have any questions or problems this week?
              Our group cohesive worked well together.  We were clear with instructions, assignments and supported one another.  No one had any concern this week, only “Praises”.
