Bridge Building Debrief (II) Personal Reflection

How I feel about working in a team on the bridge building project??I was rather happy,working with others as this project would not be easy alone.I did as much as I could and helped where I could.Overall I wish I could have helped more.In future group activities,I'l try to help out my group more as I was unable to do much as my suggestion for a certain structure of the bridge was too complicating and hard.I did not really experience any discomfort,fear or apprehensions while working with the group,other than their occasional attempts at fooling around.You can't really say it is something to be "overcomed" but I stopped them temporarily by telling them that the project is important and we ought to focus on it.
That is all for my personal reflection for the bridge building debrief.
