The research project was a good opportunity to get to know my fellow team members better after a few weeks of interacting with them in class. The project we decided to do was on the "Bell Curve" system implemented in NUS. It was an interesting topic we chose to do. The topic was something that is discussed by every student during and after examinations so the "Bell Curve" system was a topic that posed quite a number of challenges for our report.
I had a positive learning experience doing the research project with my fellow group members. We never had any communication problems. We were willing to listen to each other's view on any aspect of the report. We had constructive arguments on the areas we were arguing about. All of were very good team players. Each took on different roles at different times of the project. When one of was leading the discussion, the other two members listened attentively and wrote down notes whenever needed.The research needed for the project was contributed by all the members. We tried the internet and the magazines by NUS. We got a really good source for our research project in a magazine by NUS. We distributed the work evenly among ourselves and everybody had a fair share to do for the research project. We got together a few times and discussed about the various aspects and need for the research project.
We want to carry on with our team ethic of being cooperative and right spirit shown towards the research project. Every one of us was a team player and individual was bigger than the other. All our views was heard and properly discussed. These are some specific principles of communication that we would like to use for our oral presentation. We would like to improve on our research report by doing a good presentation reflecting our view on the research topic.

Yes. It is true that to listen to each other effectively is very important, and to get ideas through calmly. It seems like your group is really cooperative. Great job done... :D
Great to hear from you that your group project is progressing smoothly. For the part on listening, I am encouraged by the fact that active listening took place very well among members who just got to know each other this semester. This goes to show that all three of you have practised good listening skills (and not hearing) that involve a series of 5steps.
This process involves receiving, understanding, remembering, evaluating and finally responding. I am sure your group has certainly been through a valuable time and I look forward to your oral presentation.
Glad to hear that you had a valuable experience with your group. It is interesting that because the module is about Effective Communication, just by paying more attention to one another during the course of the project can enhance our experience. In fact, I come to recognize that large part of effective communication is to pay more attention - to another person, to the things you write, to the things you say. Glad that your group was able to apply what you've learn to good use.
Hi Mushtaq,
Thank you for the valuable feedback on our group. I have enjoyed working together with yuanlin and you. I particularly appreciate constructive exchange of ideas, the willingness to receive criticisms, the humility to admit mistakes, the cooperation among the group, and the initiative displayed.
It was a good experience.
