Reflection On Meeting 1 (CG1102 Project)

For our CG1102 project, we had to videotape ourselves. We had our first meeting on Thursday 11thFeb, at the central library, discussion room 6. As it was our first time doing this, we were a bit unsure and nervous about how it would go. Our group consisted of Alden, Geck Keat and me. We decided that we would just be natural during the taping.
I felt that the main purpose of us having to videotape ourselves was to look back at it and see where we could actually improve on and what were the points that we had missed out on. During the meeting, we strictly tried to follow our agenda although we went a bit off too.

Teamwork was a very important factor during such meetings. Being a team, all of us had to work together and share our ideas with each other and decide on the best among all the designs that we came up with. Alden was our leader and I felt that he did a good job by making sure that all of us contributed towards the project and put out our ideas without being afraid. He also made sure that all of us engaged in the discussion by asking questions like what do you think of this design, why not this, etc. We were stuck at some parts of the questions and so decided to ask our lab tutor for help.

We were able to manage our time well and actually completed everything that we had on our agenda. I felt that the meeting was really productive and we could come up with a rough idea of how we were going to design our project.

Resolving Interpersonal Conflict

It was during your junior college days when this incident took place. An inter college dance competition was about to take place. A few of your classmates were taking part in it. Amongst them were Rinita and Nikita. Both of them very close friends. They rarely quarreled between themselves and were always friendly to everyone around them.
One day all the participants including Rinita and Nikita were rehearsing for the auditions that were going to be held later that day hoping that they would be selected for the final competition. Then the teachers in charge of the program came to see their performances. They had to select the best three among all the students from that college. Everyone did their best and in the end Rinita, and two other girls were selected. Rinita was very happy that she got selected but at the same time felt sorry for Nikita. Nikita too was very depressed and she sat at the corner wanting to be all by herself. At the end of the auditions, all the students were climbing down the stairs.



Then a very unexpected thing happens. Some students were racing down the stairs and they accidentally pushed Nikita and she, unknowingly, went and pushed Rinita. Rinita fell down the stairs and fractured her hand. She thought that Nikita purposely pushed her down the stairs, as she felt jealous that Rinita was selected. But she did not know what actually happened. As a result of her fracture, Rinita could not participate in the competition anymore. Nikita tried explaining to her many times that she did not do it on purpose and that someone actually pushed her from behind but Rinita just would not listen to her. She really wanted to participate in the competition and felt that Nikita was responsible for whatever happened. Since that incident, Rinita was not talking with Nikita.

What should be done to solve this situation?
