Assessment 2: Reflective Account
Experience gained during the development of Assessment 1
I had a very learning experience while developing Assessment 1, as I got an opportunity
no only to enhance my overall knowledge, but also develop various new skills. This can be
better understood with the help of Gibb's Reflective Cycle, a model that was developed by
Graham Gibbs in the year 1988. The model helps in evaluating experiences and allows
individuals to learn as well as plan from the things that either went well or did not go as
expected (Ringle and et. al., 2020). As a part of academics. I was assigned the task of
developing a poster based on the topic, “Effect of Human Resource Development on the
Performance of Employees”. We were asked to complete the assessment individually as an
assignment. The tutor provided us with useful guidelines as to how could we develop an
effective as well as informative poster. When the tutor was explaining the assessment, all of us
made notes of the important points that had to be included in the same. Although I has noted
down the important points, when I sat down to make the poster, I noticed that some sections
were missing and that I had forgot to make notes of them.
So, I had to contact a friend and rewrite the notes so that I could make the poster as per
the instructions of the tutor. This helped me in noting down all the important points that the tutor
had discussed in the class and asked us to include in the poster. I took enough time to refer to
various books and journals in order to collect the information based on the heading that I had
noted down in the class. I even read various articles online in order to develop a better
understanding of the topic because I wanted my poster to be informative as well as visually
attractive at the same time. Before I realised that I had a lot of work left to do, I thought that the
assessment was progressing in a fair manner. During this situation, I felt a little nervous and
thought that my poster would not be as effective as I had thought it to be.
I even realised that the submission date was not too far and in order to achieve a high
grade, I could not submit my poster as it was. This made me a little frustrated and as a result, I
developed a plan and assigned a deadline to each task as that would help me in completing my
assessment on time and that too effectively. I was certain that I would complete the assignment
on time and due to this, I had a little motivation (Noe and et. al., 2017). So, I worked harder due
to which I was able to get the work done faster. When I look back to the incident, I feel satisfied
that I developed a plan and stuck to it until the end of the assessment. Not only this, I also feel
glad that I decided to put in extra amount of time as well as efforts.
