Lesson 1: Reflection on the last project

Today, we did the reflection on the classroom project. We mainly discussed the good points and the bad points of our project. Our presentation itself was not so bad as our delivery and slides were interesting and our idea was moderately innovative. Although we failed to create a 3d model of the classroom, which we tried to make, we clarified the prices of all pieces of equipment and explained the usefulness of new equipment so we did not completely fail on the project. One thing that was successful in our group and not in other groups was dopamine-generating. We included many pieces of little funny elements in the talk and triggered the audiences to laugh and cause secretion of dopamine. As a result of lack of planning, we accidentally and strategically created a lively atmosphere in the room and unexpectedly made the progress of the presentation smooth. However, it is very disappointing that not all the members engaged in the project. There was clearly a big difference in efforts each member put on the project and even I did not do so much work. The total time that we spent to complete the project was about 5 hours when other groups probably spent more than about 10 hours on average.
 The meeting I had today had an important meaning to me because I wasn't sure how my delivery was and how well our presentation was at all. Although I believed that I tried my best and eventually did well on the project, according to my group members, I could and needed to do a lot better than what I did. Then, I have realized I should always reflect on my act from different people's perspective.
As it turned out, my grade for this project was terrible. However, there were multiple important things I learned from the project and many weaknesses that I figured out throughout a series of advance so this project was definitely significant to me.
