Peak Oil Project (Individual Reflection)

 As preparation for our real project that will be coming up soon, we did a mock project on peak oil to allow us to understand the work that we would we dealing with in the real project. Firstly, as a group we allocated roles to research each of the perspectives of peak oil. I felt that we worked together in harmony and was able to complete the task with ease.

Next, Mr James asked us to do a fish bone diagram to summarize all the information we needed, the diagram was neat an tidy and we were able to proceed with our next phase, In our next phase we had to decide how we would convey our message of effects and management of peak oil.There was some conflict here as we could not decide on what we should do, but in the end after much discussion all of us came to a decision to teach the younger years on peak oil. We hen had to come up with segments on how to teach, what to teach and any teaching tools we may have to use.

This phase of the project was tedious, as the group members had to be pushed to do work, most lacked motivation to work and most of the work was unevenly distributed. I felt that I should have found a way to motive team member to work, so that he work that we come up with will not be sloppy or half baked but in the end, we managed to produce work to be proud of.

A week before our lessons, we decided to get other people's opinion on our project and asked 5 teachers on our project, they all gave helpful comments that really improved the performance of our work, I strong suggested that in our real project we should get other people's opinion on it.

Lesson day! We were quite nervous on the day itself but everything as ready there was no turning back. The lessons went well the year 7 throughoutly enjoyed the lessons and ave good feedback on the lessons. This means we had achieved our aim to successfully teach the younger generation on the effects and management of peak oil.

If I had to improve something, it would be group team effort and work distribution as I felt our group did poorly on those areas, Still, I think that our group achieved quite a lot from this mock prject and now we were ready to face the real one.

Peak Oil Project Reflections

It is time to review your ‘mock project’. As a group discuss and answer these questions on your group wiki/blog/webpage.

The Project

1. What area of study did you choose? Why?

Peak oil, because we were assigned to the topic.It was also a major and present issue

2. What did your group hope to achieve? What was your proposed outcome?

To educate the younger generation on effects and management of peak oil. Our outcome was that we could teach and allow the younger generation to understand the devastating effects of peak oil and how it can be managed or prevented.

3. How could you critically evaluate the success of your outcome?

Work division was imbalanced. Important issues were disagreed on at first and group members did not fully contribute to the tasks at hand

4. What were your specific group roles and responsibilities? How did you organise them? Was the allocation effective?

There was not a definite allocation of role. The work that was presented on that day was divided among each other, this made work allocation flawed and not all group members played a full active roll.

5. Did your project have enough scope for every group member to play an active, full time part in the group work? How could you improve this?

There was not enough scope as we were only doing the global's view so not all members could play a ful active role. Next time, We suggest that we should include more view such as national,self etc to give group members a full and active role

6. Was the workload manageable in the time frame?

The workload was manageable as we ere organized, on track and everything proceeded smoothly

7. How effective were your minutes and agendas at keeping the task on focus? How did they help you? How could you improve them?

The agendas kept the task on focus and on track. The agenda allowed us to remember was was done weeks ago and group members were able to see what was the day's success criteria so our group can reach those objectives and view what homework was given. Improvement can be made by each group member having a editable copy of the agenda so that homework, due dates and other important things can be known by all group members

The Perspectives

1. How did you gather information and opinions/viewpoints from a personal, local/national and global perspective?

We researched online and we also interviewed some teachers

. How did/could you make sure you consider all these perspectives in your project?

We doubled check with our teacher and we interviewed some students and staff of the school

3. Would your outcome need to be accompanied by some additional explanation or elaboration?

Yes, as the generation we are teaching is young. They may need more explanation and elaboration to get the full concepts and ideas

Yes

4. How could you make sure you include cross-cultural views?

We could make it cross-cultural by adding perspectives from multiple countries and embed the governments view as well
