Skyscraper Project Evaluation
Every individual in a team has his/her own strengths and weaknesses. As our team was organised accordingly, every member was contributing by using their strong characteristics to ensure the success of our project. Because we had a clearly defined goal, we were able to understand how linked and interdependent the people and the tasks are. This was the reason behind our good team work that helped us communicate and support each other. I will be briefly stating my individual contributions to the project in addition to the challenges I faced that taught me how I should work differently on my next project.
The first step we took as a team was discussing our strong and weak points, …show more content…
I also learnt how important communication is for each team member. If we did not contact each other then we would not be able to use our strengths to support a team member who did not possess these strengths and so we would never be able to complete the project as the tasks depend on each other.
This project also helped me acquire useful information related to civil engineering. I learnt how to work out the centre of mass, how civil engineers are constantly challenged by the change in plans that pressurize them to become experts in making difficult decisions in a short period of time.
As this was the first time I participate in a project related to engineering, mistakes were unavoidable. In my next project I will try to better my communication skills towards each member to make sure everyone has an equal workload. I would also try and be more involved in the process of designing a product, this will enable me to become familiarized with software that will prove beneficial in my engineering
