Assignment 2: Personal Journal

How does it feel to be moving to this new stage of the team project? What observations and recommendations might you make to support or improve the team experience? Do you feel comfortable offering your observations and suggestions to the team? Hearing others’ suggestions and observations? What are some ways you might help the team stay focused and energized?

To prepare:

  • Reflect on this week’s experiences with your team.

Assignment

Complete your journal entry for this week in your Personal Journal, reflecting on your experiences with the team process for this week.

  • How is it going?
  • What are you learning about yourself?
  • What are you learning about the team process?
  • What seems to be working well? Not so well?
  • How might you continue to support your team’s development and ongoing progress?
  • What more may be needed to enhance the team process?
  • Share any other thoughts you may have.

Note: Your Instructor will visit your journal after the end of the week. Grading will be based on demonstrated understanding of the week’s content and on thoughtful reflection on the process itself, not on whether or not the week went smoothly. This is a safe place to explore solutions to issues that arose during the week. Your Instructor also will provide private feedback within your journal space. If you need to contact the Instructor with private concerns, please e-mail him/her at the Walden e-mail address provided in the Contact the Instructor section of the Discussion forum.
