this module, I was not
familiar with concept
of peer to peer
learning but after
opting this module I
have come to know
that it is important for
both academic and
professional career.
Earlier, I thought that
my seniors would help
me in understanding
this course and support
me whenever I will
face difficulty. In this
course, my peers
helped me in
accomplishing task
rather than just
instructing me. This
creates a sense of
responsibility within
myself and this would
help me in my
professional career.
Along with that, my
peers have conducted
a group study session

open platform to share

too. It is needed to
have effective balance
between superior and
subordinates so as to
manage team. It
facilitates in elevating
productivity of team
mates and becomes
easier to accomplish
organisational goals
effectively and
efficiently. This course
focus on team building
spirit and how it can
be benefited by
working
collaboratively rather
than individual. Each
member have different
set of skills and
knowledge which can
be access by leader to
make project more
efficient. In addition to
skill that I have
acquired through this
module will be applied
in my professional and
academic career. I will
develop a platform for
my colleagues in
which they are free to
share their views,
opinion and thoughts
regarding a particular
topic. This will help
them in enhancing
confidence level and
becoming more
productive. I will
provide various
business cases and
invite solution for
solving issues. This
