Post#4 - Reflecting on Meeting 1

 
Meeting 1 of group C02B

There are some things that one can only see, while looking at a video. During the meeting itself, everyone agreed that the meeting was effective and productive.
However, after reviewing the meeting in video, I realized that there are many parts of the meeting that can be further improved. Perhaps the motivation for making a video of our first meeting isn’t just for Mr James to review on it.
Maybe it was done so that we can look at our meeting from a third-person perspective, and from that, we notice things we weren’t able to as participants of the meeting.

Post #3 - Interpersonal conflict scenario

Ah Lim, Ah Quah, and Alamak are 3 very close friends who knew each other since they were young. Being very close friends, they co-owned a Pokémon farm. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pokemon)

Go! Pokémon!

Ever since the farm was built, they had worked hard together to bring the farm to what it was today.

Ah Quah is sort of the leader of the trio; he displays good leadership skills, is very good at what he is doing, but is a bit too direct with his words. Alamak on the other hand, although he is a hard worker, he tends to make minor mistakes from time to time. Ah Quah has the tendency to criticize Alamak for every mistake he makes, but Alamak regards the criticism as ‘positive feedback’. Ah Lim is sort of the character created for mediating purposes.
