Objective
The objective of this reflective piece is to enhance students’ engagement in their own learning by
reflecting on their performance while working in teams. You are asked to write about your own
performance within the team in regards to team communication, constructive teamwork and self-
management within the team. This will involve evaluating and describing your own learning
experience in this assignment.
This assignment will help students develop their skills in the process of collection, selection,
curation, direction, evaluation and reflection.
Threshold learning standards (TLSs) for accounting graduates were developed collaboratively across
Australia in 2010 with input from the professional accounting bodies, various business practitioners
and accounting academics. Five TLSs were developed for the Accounting discipline of which the self-
management standard is relevant for this assessment task.
Bachelor graduates in Accounting will be able to 'reflect on performance feedback to identify and
action learning opportunities and self-improvements'.
In this assignment, you are required to reflect on your learning in the group assignment
(Assignment 2 Part B) with an emphasis on team work and self-management. You will also need to
identify and action learning opportunities and self-improvements.
In this unit, self-management refers to skills and strategies by which individuals can effectively
identify and action learning opportunities and self-improvements to direct their own learning
activities toward the achievement of personal and professional learning goals.

Self-management skills include:
• setting a future plan and establishing clear personal goals
• reviewing and monitoring one's own performance
• taking responsibility for one’s own learning
• setting priorities and milestones
• clearly articulating personal ideas and vision
Team work, in this unit refers to being able to work collaboratively with a group of people in order
to achieve a goal. This involves:
• communicating effectively,
• supporting team members through respectful feedback,
• delegating the tasks and deciding who is the most appropriate to undertake them.
Teamwork encompasses maximising the individual strengths of team members to bring out their
best.
What is reflective practice?
Reflective practice is about taking personal responsibility for actions, self-reflecting and critiquing
your own performance and identifying and planning future development needs. In order to take
personal responsibility for your actions you need to initially record the goals you wish to achieve
when working in a team, past team experiences and ways in which you can improve your
performance while working in your team for Assignment 2 Part B. It is also important to keep
evidence of your experience in working with a team, as this will help you reflect back on your
performance within the team. Evidence can be as simple as recording your thoughts after team
meetings or after communicating with individual team members or staff. This evidence will help you
to put together your final reflection on your performance in the team.
Task
Your task is to develop a reflection that highlights the work you have done in achieving the goals you
have set for yourself while working in a team for Assignment 2 Part B.
There are two parts in the task:
Part 1A: This is due Tuesday 22 August 2017 in the Assessment folder, Assessment 2 Part 1A. Record
your initial thoughts about working in teams. In doing so please answer the following:
1. Consider past teamwork experiences and discuss what areas you were good at and why.
2. During the team experience for MAA261 (Assignment 2 Part B), what skills (eg:
communication, commitment, constructive feedback) would you like to improve in relation
to your teamwork performance and what self-management measures will you take to help
you improve them.
In answering question 2 it is a good idea to determine two goals that you wish to achieve in relation
to your performance. The two goals must be focused on developing team work skills and include
how you will achieve them using self-management skills.

When setting your goals consider stating them as SMART goals. To set a SMART goal make sure it is:
Specific - Consider who, what, when, where, why and how in developing the goal.
Measurable - Include a numeric or descriptive measurement.
Achievable - Consider the resources needed and set a realistic goal.
Relevant - Make sure the goal is consistent with the mission.
Time-bound - Set a realistic deadline.
Learning how to frame goals as SMART goals and being willing to adjust them to get SMARTer is an
important skill that would help every student. Here is a practical example, starting with a typical, but
not especially SMART, goal:
I will do better on my report card in the next marking period.
This goal is time-bound in that it states “the next marking period”, but does not address the other
components of a SMART goal.
Here is a way to make it SMARTer:
In the next marking period, I will get at least a C on all my math tests, and at least a B on most of my
quizzes and homework assignments.
Notice how the goal has become more specific, by providing a guide to the result intended. But it's
not completely SMART yet because it has no action plan or benchmarks. Here is a pretty SMART goal:
In the next marking period, I will take careful notes and review them at least two days before tests
and quizzes so that I can ask the teacher questions about what I don't understand. I will do my math
homework before I do things with friends, and when I hand it in, I will ask the teacher about anything
I am not sure about. When I get anything wrong, I will make sure to ask the teacher, or one of my
classmates how they got the right answer.
Take time to review the goal and determine which parts relate to being
Specific
Measurable
Achievable
Relevant
Time-bound
The goals set must relate to team work in Assignment 2 Part B in MAA261, Financial Accounting.
For example a team work goal could be: in Trimester 2, 2017 I would like to improve the way in which
I support my team members. This will include providing mutual support and tolerance to my fellow
team members. I will ensure at each meeting that I provide respectful feedback and also establish
deadlines to which I can provide feedback to fellow team members on their work on the group
assignment.

Part 2A: Due by Friday, 15 September 2017 in the Assessment folder, Assessment 2 Part 2A. After
you have submitted Assignment 2 Part B (group assignment) you must reflect back on the experience
using your initial reflection from Part 1A to compile your final reflective piece. The reflective piece
should tie together the learning experiences that you have completed with regard to Team Work and
Self-Management. Reflect on where you performed well while working with your team as well as
where you did not and if you made any changes along the way to your approach. For example, you
needed to extend the deadline you set for providing feedback to team members as you received their
work later than expected.
Within the reflective piece, you may wish to answer the following questions:
1. Did you achieve the 2 goals that you set in part 1A? Why or Why not?
2. Did you set new goals or slightly change your existing goals?
3. What self-management tools did you use to help you work towards your goals? Were they
helpful?
4. What was your role in the team and how did your actions help the group complete the tasks
on time?
