When I Was Part Of A Team
I have been part of a team many times in my life. One example is when I did the National History Day Project with my friend in eighth grade. It took us two weeks of meeting every day to finish our awesome project, and the reason it turned out so awesome was because we worked well as a team.
Benefits And Barriers
Benefits- One benefit that I experiences while working as a part of this team was that there was a lot less work for both of us. Since we worked together, we were able to split up the work so that if there was something that she was better at, she could do it and vice versa. It also made the project go a lot faster and we were able to turn a better project in on time. Another benefit of working in that team with my friend was that there were more varied opinions. She was a lot more creative than me in some areas so were were able to combine ideas and make it the best project we have ever done. Part way through the project, her mom was also giving us ideas to go off of which helped a lot in the long run. There are many benefits to working in a team, but there may also be some barriers to it.
Barriers- While working in a team there may be some barriers involved. Honestly, in the project that I mentioned above, there were no barriers between me and my team member, but there were many barriers in other teamwork experiences that I have been in. There were a lot of times when one team member would not pull their weight and it would be like doing the project by yourself only they would get the credit. There were also times when there have been too many passive people on the team and we couldn't make any decisions. It made completing the project extremely difficult.
