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
