Reflective statement

This was the first project that I have chosen to work in a group for. The last project which I worked in a group for was during the start of the year and it was compulsary to work in group for that project. This time around it was more workable and less problematic, in the pervious group project there were problems due to the large number of people within the group
leading to problems with task management. This time is was smoother possibly because of 3 person group making task management easier and also that we knew each other strengths. Contributing in these areas when ever possible.

My main contribution was developing the project conceptually and finding a location that would fit in conceptually with the laser projector i also did some initial experimentation and construction however most of the input in this area was done by other group members. In some parts of the project we worked separately as it was necessary too. This was extremely helpful because we could complete more by multitasking even multitasking on the same task. For example in construction we each worked in different parts of the projector and because of this we were able to get it completed within 2 days.

Other benefits of working in a group included a larger budget since their were 3 people in the group we could all input a larger proportion of money enabling more opportunities this helped buy another laser. The main benefit i gain from working in a group would be the fact that you can share ideas and thoughts with other members helping the development of the project. I think these benefits have convinced me to work in more group projects in the future .
