round robin

I felt that the assignment was helpful with the group I was in because luckily, I have them in my Thursday night class so it was kind of nice if I was confused on something, they most likely were too so we kind of would figure it out together. Then we all split the questions up and worked on them separately but then after worked on them together and read everyone’s feedback.
I felt that the questions I was doing on confrontation were a little harder than the other questions on “I” statements. It probably has a lot to do with how I am as a person because I am not a fan of any confrontation whatsoever and avoid it, but deal with it when necessary. However, I think I do a good job on expressing how I feel about certain situations and things that are going on in my life so that may be why it was so hard for me to answer the questions. I know I’ve said this before, but I don’t feel comfortable in giving, but I am learning on how to be more helpful with it so the person that I am giving it to can benefit from what I am saying. Also though, I didn’t see that many blogs up yet for me to rate.
I would rate my answers probably just good. I am not going to say they were the best because I don’t like grading myself either, but I also had a difficult time with them although I spent some time on them, but I will admit, I was a little confused on the chapter, there was a lot of information so the exercise helped. I certainly felt like I understood it a little better. There’s always room to improve with me and that’s something I am trying to do with my feedback, I do want to improve and try to be helpful to my peers so I am going to try to thoroughly read their work and try to give them ideas to make it a little better, just because, like I said there’s always room for work with everyoneJ. I guess, I just don’t want to seem like I am criticizing their work, even though they probably wouldn’t feel that way. It’s hard to grade someone else’s work because I am just a student too like them and that’s why I have a hard time with it because I just want to tell them the good things they did in the paper.
This assignment was good to know and understand for us when dealing with clients. You need to never seem like you are talking down to them or judging them, you can’t make a client feel belittled by your words and that’s very important. Also, its good to know how to deal with confrontational situations and environments. That part will really come in handy for me inside of work and just with life. You need to handle the situations calmly and respectful.

  1. I will say with all the different dates for this assignment out there it was quite confusing so I will agree that its fortunate that we all have class together in our group to put our heads together for this class. This kind of blogging is confusing to most of our group as to the purpose of it.

  2. I would say the questions would be hard if it is hard for you to deal with confrontation. But with experience you will learn to deal with it. It's always a good thing never to judge a client because that can led to many unethical issues but if you know your bais and values you can decide to work with the client or not.
