Team Survey

Strengths and Weaknesses

Una, Jemma and I come from similar backgrounds (all studying Spanish, and Una and Jemma are studying education), which has its pros and cons.

Pros include the fact that we think along the same lines and it’s easier to make decisions. Cons include the fact that we need to work harder to diversify. But I think it’s something that we can easily overcome by focusing on interests apart from our university majors.

As a group, our strengths include co-operation, participation and communication. Our weaknesses include time management – we’re all quite busy and we find it very difficult to meet up. But because we communicate well (thanks to the internet) and co-operate with each other, at this stage quick after-class meetings are all we need. Thankfully with the holidays coming up we’ll be able to meet up more often.


Team Goals


We’re aiming for an informative yet entertaining and interesting presentation, and are trying to achieve at least a high credit or distinction. This is achievable because we keep in contact two or three times a week and we all participate equally.

We’ll need to improve our time management skills if we want a higher mark though but since we have similar goals in mind, we are able to work efficiently. While we do get distracted, it’s not often and generally we’re quite focused. When making decisions, we brainstorm and play off each other’s ideas. This way, if work or ideas are not up to standards, as a team we can also build on it.
