Unit 30

During activities to do with graphic manipulation i thought about the design of a logo which then sponsored a product that i designed, on a poster that i made. I had to become familiar with software i was not used to. Through tutorial videos, i learnt a lot of technical knowledge. I listened to my peers and helped them to expand their creativity, as did they with me. We gave each other constructive criticism to help build our work to professional standards together.

Effective Communication - working in a group.

I experienced two written, two general and one interpersonal skills barrier to effective communication. The two written barriers were, a job application letter with constant use of errors and a formal letter with inappropriate structure and language. The two general barriers were, a presentation with inaccurate information and a presentation given with background distractions. Finally, the interpersonal barrier was a presentation given with the incorrect tone of voice and body language respectively.

Within the group discussions, I realised I would have to say something to get a mark which meant I had to raise the volume of my voice.

Routine Maintenance

In this activity we had to use technical skills to help other students. working with others is a skill i have gained from this assignment. I can now use the skill in future classes, or in future employment. I improved on my technical skills.
