Feedback Report

Learning and assessments are an integral part of growing and expanding knowledge. The extra eye that watches for where we go wrong and most importantly where we go right, and excel is a critical input in the process of learning. I am a believer in correcting mistakes and honesty. Most importantly I believe that credit should be given where it is deserved. This is because learning and education, , it is a daunting task that not only sucks one's mental energy but also their physical well-being. The human resource development center associated with this activity was a critical learning and assessment aspect of my learning journey. This is because I was able to evaluate a student on four activities firsthand and understand not how people see me from the outside (Dinkmeyer & Eckstein, 2015). The development centers that Tom should watch out for include communication and team working. It is notable that regardless of the comprehension abilities, participating in a team and working as a team player are key elements in learning. Tom is an above average student with adequate learning skills. A it is the common norm, learning is infinite. The employability centers are mainly focusing on areas of improvement. I believe that Tom is a good student with all the required skills. Most notably there is more room to grow and become fully engaged (Dinkmeyer & Eckstein, 2015). These areas include participation, concentration and focus as well as responses to questions and quizzes. This means that Tom has more room to improve and engage in more challenging tasks with even greater skills. This will only be possible if he builds on his existing strengths and continuously create room for more learning.

Feedback provides an avenue for a student to evaluate their strengths and weaknesses from the point of view of others. Personal SWOT analysis can be biased. However, if the strengths and weaknesses are identified by an anonymous or unbiased observer, the benefits are numerous. For this learning exercise, the feedback is aimed at improvement as opposed to bringing the student down. For Tom, the evaluation will be based on events that can define his activities and responses to learning situations.

Strength One -Problem solving

1. Math question Activity - Competency measured: problem solving BARS Scale: 3 out of 5

Introduce what problem solving is with reference then start explaining his performance then area to develop don’t be judgmental

This strength was measured through the math question activity for the problem-solving competencies. Tom received a 3 out of the 5 bars used for ranking. The problem-solving activity was comprised of several maths questions. Tom had remarkable skills with numbers, and he arrived at situations with ease. In my opinion, he found new ways to add large numbers, multiply with ease and arrive at other answers to even more challenging questions using different methods (Cottrell, 2015). The ability to utilize different methods for the primary purpose of arriving at a conclusion that is right was remarkable.

To improve your score, I recommend you to focus on the following;

· focus on the conventional ways to solve the existing problems. This is because the focus on other methods might be complicated.

· Learn to remain objective and break down silos. This means that there is no need to wander off the question. It is also important to break down a problem and find solutions to the individual parts.

· translating research into creative ideas can really be beneficial (Dinkmeyer & Eckstein, 2015). This is because it allows you to put what you already learned or researched into perspective and language that others can understand.

Strength two – communication

1. Debate Activity - Competency measured: communication BARS Scale: 3 out of 5

This strength was measured using the interactions and ability to present your ideas. You had good ideas, and you tried to express them to the groups you were involved in the most efficient manner. In my opinion, you are good at listening which is a critical strength in communication. You followed instructions, listened to other people’s ideas and ensured that the others saw instructions from your understanding. For this strength, you received 3 out of 5 bars. This means that you have more room for improvement and growth when it comes to communication.

To improve your score, I recommend you to consider the following;

· It is important to be as clear and objective as possible especially when it is large groups involved. This helps drive points home within a short while.

· Try to use your body to communicate or complement the verbal communication. This helps to engage the audience.

· I recommend yoy to hold more eye contact if you are in a group .

Strength three – teamwork

1. Consultancy project Activity - Competency measured: teamwork BARS Scale: 3 out of 5

Your teamwork skills are above average with a score of 3 out of the 5 bars. In the consultancy activity, you were a good team player. Your listening skills came in handy, and the eye contact with the others was a good and critical input. Teamwork entails actively engaging in what your team is doing. As much as you contributed some ideas, you were fairly quiet. I believe that with more practice and getting used to the group, you have done better.

To improve your score, you should consider the following;

· Engaging in open communication. It is important to note that communication is always two-way.

· Get more engaged, exercise and actively participate in every activity regardless of who you are helping.

· Identify your roles and focus on finishing them up first to ensure you do not lag the team behind.

Weakness 1 – communication

1. Consultancy project Activity - Competency measured: communication BARS Scale: 2.5 out of 5

This competency was assessed during the consultancy activity. You received 2.5 bars out 5 in this exercise. You were fairly quiet throughout the activity. This activity required a lot of brainstorming and engagements. In the same context, you seemed anxious which affected your sinc with the rest of the group. Staying in sync with a group ensures that things do not get repeated.

To improve your score, I recommend you to consider the following;

· focus on the goal of the project to ensure that your idea generation is not affected by the rest, but by how right or important they are to the project.

· Be precise and ask questions where there is a problem. This helps you stay in sync with the members. lastly, focus on expressing your ideas regardless of how bad you might think they are.

Weakness 2 – leadership

1. Debate Activity - Competency measured: LEADERSHIP BARS Scale: 2.5 out of 5 /

This competency was assessed during the debate activity. You received 2.5 bars out of the five bars. From the observations made, communication to the other team members was a challenge. To lead you are better suited if you inspire the rest by communicating.

To improve your score, you should consider the following; more area to develop more relevant not only few words

· communicating effectively and engaging the ideas of the others.

· trust in the abilities of the team. This is because leaders must believe in their teams.

· tap into the team members values

· set definitive goals and have a clear vision.

Weakness 3 –team work

1. Debate Activity - Competency measured: team work BARS Scale: 2.5 out of 5 / draw the stars correctly

This competency was assessed in the debate activity. You received a 2.5 score out of 5. This weakness comes as a result of the actions and low motivation as well as communication in the activity. To achieve good teamwork, it is important to have a communication protocol to ensure that everyone participates. It is also important to motivate and find the motivation to participate.

To improve your score

· focus on your communication skills and most importantly express your ideas.

· identify your roles as a leader or a team player and execute them to the best of your abilities (Dinkmeyer & Eckstein, 2015).

Overall, you portrayed excellent skills. I believe that with a few tweaks and improvements in your skill-sets you can become a good leader, team player, communicator and most importantly a better learner. This can be achieved by changing perspectives and focusing on the objectives and tasks at hand. This also means a full engagement for both the mental and psychological states.
