Making Good Life Choices: A Retrospect into the PEP

Throughout the project, the biggest roadblock that we encountered was working in a way that played to each of our individual strengths. Luckily, we all found one aspect of the project that suited us and worked toward it, take for example Thomas working on the 3d modeling.

However, from the very start of the Planet Exploration Project, we had already figured out how and realized how we were going to communicate with one another. This played an monumental role in solving the issues brought up as a result of poor organization.

The largest problem we have to improve moving forward is our communication with our teachers.

Coordinating amount of ice, materials, etc. was a struggle throughout the entire process. At multiple points throughout the process we were unclear about what support and what materials would be needed for us to work most effectively.

In terms of how the process went, it was preplanned and surprisingly, and fortunately, went entirely to plan. This is even more of a relief as we did not budget any time whatsoever to remedy any possible issues that could have come up. As a result, time management and “oops” time were perfectly budgeted and we were extremely efficient throughout the process.

To be clear, I must work on time management. It was only luck that everything went to plan and if things were to go away from plan, we would not have recovered in time.

    Good reflection, Aaron. What strategies might you implement in your personal project to ensure good communication with your teacher and better time management?

  2. For my personal project, I must use a calendar such as Google Calendar or note taking software like Notion to better keep track of what tasks need to be completed and when. I must also add additional time scattered throughout the personal project to account for any possible hiccups.
