In-Service Reflection: Blog 4
In-Service Reflection: Blog 4
Our team, originally composed of nine members, underwent a slight reshuffle with
Vivy and Crystal choosing a different path. This left seven of us collaborating on our
empowerment project. Valeria and I are handed the reins of the Well-being Support section.
Our responsibilities within this section are multifaceted. Not only do we contribute to
the online conversation space, but we also integrate nutrition-related content into language
conversations, and overseeing the online platform setup. The phase we're in now involves
crafting each task and its subcomponents, ensuring our well-being supports vision translates
into actions. Regular brainstorming sessions with Valeria are essential to align our ideas.
The journey, however, hasn't been devoid of challenges. Coordinating our varied
schedules for collaboration was our first hurdle. Yet, with the aid of shared calendars and
dedicated planning tools, we've managed to streamline our collaborative efforts. Facilitating
the salon-style conversations presented its unique challenges, especially in striking a balance
alternate roles during these discussions, ensuring both active participation and effective
conversation management.
Choosing the ideal platform for our online interactions was another debate. After
narrowing down our options, we are set to deliberate on a few prime contenders next week,
like Discord and Facebook Groups. Each offers unique advantages, from invite-only groups
on Discord to the familiarity of Facebook. Our goal is to pick an accessible and interactive
medium for our students. Meanwhile, both Valeria and I are immersing ourselves in tutorials
Our site manager has consistently supported us during this process. Her approval of
our role and idea in this well-being section bolstered our confidence. Furthermore, her
willingness to meet in the future provides assurance that guidance is available if needed.
