SKILL REFLECTION
When I was in my college, I had a number of different types of skilling system which was
used in class lectures by me. I have made a weekly division of some of the skills which I learnt
during my class lectures in college. Some of such skills are mentioned below:
Time and task management skill: task here is a piece of work which I completed during my
assignment. Management is considered as a process which is used for managing the task I
performed. I learned a time management skill in order to accomplish all the goals and objectives
set up by me within a given time period. This skill will help me in future in order to utilise my
team in the most effective manner. All the work to be done will be divided according to time
from now on. I will make sure that my priority is fulfilled regarding the goals and objectives
within the time allotted from my superiors or an authorized person. As a student this skill will
help me in managing my assignments and also writing my papers.

Group formation: This aspect includes formation of groups as well as teams. Group is when a
people who have common interest interact with one another and come together to work on the
same skills they have towards a common vision. I have also developed a quality in which I can
easily form a group with the help of a number of people and make them work together. There are
various norms to group behavior which I have been incorporating in me (Basturkmen, 2014). I
also learned about different groups which are formal as well as informal groups and now I am a
part of both such groups.
