HOW TO... - Self Evaluation

What role(s) did you take on in the group?
'Main' designer, logo design, poster//flier & packaging.

How well do you think you performed in the role(s)?

Everything was ready for when it needed to be; made sure all decisions were made as a group so that everyone was happy with the final designs. Enjoyed the practical sides of things & was pleased with how the final solutions turned out.

How well do you think you worked as a group?

Surprisingly well! First day we didn't really click but by yesterday we were making group decisions, there were not arguments and after the presentation today a few people commented how well we seemed to have worked together. We collaborated on everything and every decision was made as a group.

What were the positives of working in a group?

Lots of ideas and suggestions, positive critical evaluations so we managed to get the best outcome at every point. Having different points of view and different methods of working was also really good. Banter.

What were the negatives of working in a group?

Too many good ideas - was difficult to incorporate everyone's ideas into the final outcome because of continuity! On Wednesday it was difficult to arrange coming in at the same time and felt like we couldn't get on with the project without the whole group present.

What will you do differently next time?

More group brainstorms and work together from the start - we were quite separate the first day. Find out people's individual strengths before we start working to allocate appropriately.

Where could you have improved your resolution?

More research before starting the project & could have thought about how to collect feedback after producing the final resolution. Photographed//placed product in contextual setting e.g. vending machines.

What were the strengths of your presentation?

Think we were well prepared as we had run through it a couple of times already so it was clear and confidently communicated. Everyone in the group took part & had enough to say and we had good visuals//handouts for the audience.
