Reflection on the CG1102 second meeting


My teammates, Juncheng and Nitika, said that I performed well on the second meeting and there were just a few things to criticize me so that we should showed the appreciation on the reflection. However, I thought that they were so nice to me and I had to critically reflect myself again so that I could figure out some points to improve for the next meeting. I would like to use the criteria that my team used to evaluate my performance:

· Well prepared for the meeting

· Courteous

· Committed

· Critical

· Open to suggestions

It is true that I made some improvements comparing to the last meeting. I participated actively in the discussion although my speech was still unclear and not fluent enough which caused difficulty for other members to understand my ideas. This time I overcame the shyness and was willing to voiced out my ideas and asked for clarification whenever needed.

However, when other teammates were speaking, I did not maintain the eye contacts although the sitting position was very convenient to do that. I kept looking at the paper without any non verbal cues. Moreover, the facial expression was not so good. I seemed like being in an argument with an unhappy face most of the meeting time. Nevertheless, these flaws did not repeat when I was speaking – the eye contact was maintained and I also smiled sometimes when I saw the agreement from other members.

On the whole, I did better than the last time although there were some points that I need to take note of. Maintaining eye contact, making facial expression and practicing speaking clearly were the main points that he need to improve for the future discussion.
