I have learned about various types of virus, their vectors and when they spread amongst other things about them.
My strength was the quantity and quality of information which I discovered during my research online as well as my ability to word, quote and source it into a presentation.
My weakness was my hesitation and reliance on my teammate when creating and delivering the presentation. I feel that my self-confidence and assertiveness could use some improvement. This is an area for improvement which I will try and work on in the future.
I have done a good job today and will hopefully do even better next time I find myself in a similar situation.
I have not been assigned any tasks which will need to be done in the future. This is good as it reflects on my ability to get what I need to get done done on time and in my lesson time. I also have to complete and hand in an assignment to my tutor, Zoe by Tuesday next week.
