As you can tell, we have had the opportunity to work together at several different places. All year we have been learning how to communicate as a group, how to respect others and what it takes to be an effective team.
Last week we worked together in pairs on a project titled Egg Drop. But before we started the project, we first brainstormed what makes a good team. Here are our responses:
1. What makes for good team communication?
- Positive attitude
- Sharing your ideas with each other
- Getting others to share their ideas
- Talk to your teammates with respect
- Treat other teammates the way you wish to be treated
- Communicate with your team.
2. What makes a good team?
- Work together as one unit
- Put people where they feel they will do the best
- Know the rules
3. What are your weaknesses when working as a team?
- People not working at the same as me
- I don’t communicate my ideas
- At times I'm impatient with others when they make repeated mistakes
- I tend to be too quiet
- I get upset when we are working too close together
- Its hard to get in to the flow of others
4. What are a few things to remember when working on a team?
- Cooperate
- Work together with respect
- Verbally express your feelings
- Ask your teammates for help
- Give consideration to every ones ideas
