This report will analyse and evaluate the effectiveness of our group activity which was the presentation of Shari Neagle and Tim Moffatt. This evaluation report also includes self-assessment identifying the opportunities, disadvantages and improvements of personal and group performances.
After completing the group activity, I have recognised both personal development and learning from the SACE capabilities. In personal development, I have made progress on the following factors: role model, self-confidence, organisation and leadership skills.
I have developed a good role model skill because at first, most of the group members thought that since Shari was our guest speaker, we didn’t need to write an email and Aynsleigh could just ask for …show more content…

I have also learnt to take the opportunity to ask/answer questions no matter right or wrong because I know that no one was judgemental. The negative aspect that I have learnt from some people include: lack of participation in group discussions, not using the time wisely, mucking around and sometimes made situations worse by being stubborn and selfish. Despite some weaknesses that were found within the group, I thought that our collaboration skill was up to a high standard as everyone worked well together and achieved a very successful
