The final day.
It has arrived, the day of the presentation for the poster and model.
It was very stressful as I saw that there were some problems with the modelling. The poster was fine and done but the model needs some work.
I went down to help the other group make the model. What we needed was the columns and the Base to be completed. I was rushing around to get things done by 11:00 which was the presentation time.
We finished the model but unfortunately we didn’t have enough time to complete the Base of the model. It was very stressful to keep some people motivated but at least we were mostly finished with the model.
The time for the presentation was closing in and we need to organise ourselves to fit the time frame we have to present our project.
As the group leader I went ahead and started the presentation introducing myself but because of stage fright I seem to have forgot to mention the others. For the same reason I seem to babble longer than I should have. I explained the basis of our idea and how we came to it as well as the thoughts we have on the design. After the presentation we were told about our mistakes or trip ups.
One was the use of the roundabout idea, though I mentioned briefly I didn’t want to over extend my time so I can let others speak on their part.
The second was the modelling, I did explain the lack of Time but I should’ve planned it more strictly as the team leader.
And lastly was the reflection on the project. Though the project was enjoyable I probably should’ve discussed with the other members about the reflection of the project so that the other groups can have a neutral plane to express what they think about this project.
I enjoyed the project, though I probably won’t have chosen myself as the leader. I seem to have done a fair part, sending assignments to my members for the next day, doing some offline work and research and monitoring the progress of my team and responding accordingly while keeping in mind the information that I gathered and their situations.
