Reflection international day

Dutch international day stand

On December the 19th 2013 we had a meeting to discuss the plans for the Dutch stand at international. During this meeting we voted for the ambassador of the stand, which ended up being me. As ambassador I tried to  make sure everyone had a voice during this meeting and together we planned our stand. On December the 20th it was international day, in the morning we set up the stand together. We had a lot of fun together and we had some funny ways of promoting our stand.

Time: 5 hours service

Reflection 

reflection based on the learning outcomes

• Planned and iniated activities: For this activity I had to plan what everyone would bring to the stand and how we would organise our stand because we were sharing with Belgium. Furthermore I also had to make sure our plans were realistic and that no one forgot anything.
• working collaboratively with others: During this activity I had to work a lot with the other members of our Dutch stand and because we had such a large group there was a second ambassador of the stand. During the day we also had to make sure that some people stayed at the stand whilst others were walking around. This also meant that we had to work together quite well.

Reflection based on the learner profile

• Principled: In order to be a good ambassador I also had to make sure the tasks were divided equally and that we all got to spend an equal time walking around and staying at the stand. of course to do this I had to be fair. Furthermore as ambassador I was also  responsible if something went wrong.
• Communicator: For our stand to be a great stand of course we had to be good at communicating so that there would be no misunderstandings. The stand seemed to do well and everyone got along during the day. Furthermore without good communication we would not have been organised.
