Executive Summaries

Aby's Reflection

• Progress: This week we created an outline for our presentation and formatted the presentation for the journal club.
  1. What worked? Responsibilities for the presentation was delegated well so that everyone contributed an equal share.
  2. What didn't work? It was difficult to work around everyone's schedules so that we could meet up and work together.
  3. What will I do next to fix what didn't work? We will need to communicate with one another better and anticipate the amount of time necessary to complete the assignment as a group so that our schedules don't interfere with the groupwork.

Jonar's Reflection

• Progress:
  1. What worked? Everybody in the group was responsive and we were able to agree on and start our presentation early. The delegation of work and support worked well.
  2. What didn't work? Due to time constraints with multiple people, finding time for all five members was a little difficult
  3. What will I do next to fix what didn't work? We can plan an early meeting time or we can delegate tasks and plan a little meeting just to go over the work.

Christina's Reflection

• Progress:
  1. What worked? We started early which allowed us to have the time to work through our presentation in a timely manner.
  2. What didn't work? It is difficult to find a meeting time for 5 people in order to work on the presentation.
  3. What will I do next to fix what didn't work? Try to find a time on the weekend to meet instead of on school days.

Mihir's Reflection

• Progress:
  1. What worked?
     • We were able to communicate well, and we all worked together to help each other understand and excel in our tasks. Furthermore, we figured out methods of communication and how to best work with each other remotely.
  2. What didn't work?
     • Scheduling times to work on this assignment was pretty hectic this week, given that each member of our team had an unusual number of projects, midterms, homework, and extra-curricular activities this week. We could not all meet together outside of class.
  3. What will I do next to fix what didn't work?
     • Hopefully, this was a one-time occurrence and none of us will be as busy as we were this week. However, other than that, we could also improve our responsiveness in our team's group message, as that is our sole method of communication outside of class.
