As a student we are able to think critically at any given point of time and as  for me this is very crucial when I was doing my integrated assignment because I had to think in many different ways to complete this assignment. While doing economics section for this assignment I had to do many things to obtain more information. For example I had to visit Tesco and gather all the information, take pictures of the products that are sold at Tesco and also asks the Tesco staff workers for  more information about Tesco . Therefore , through this I managed to obtain proper Communication skills because I had to interact with the  staffs to get more information about Tesco. Besides just interacting with the staffs only I also had to interact with my teammates to obtain more information for economics section. At first I had a slight difficulty in asking for more information because I felt that I was distracting them from their work but then I was finally able to communicate with them and ask them to help me out a little and I managed to complete my assignment and also because of this I managed to improve my communication skills because I’m now able to interact more with my teammates without having any difficulities. Moreover , I also helped my friends to complete this assignment like helping them to gather more information and I also helped my friends to design our own web for IT part of this assignment although at first we all had a hard time to design our own web because we have never created our own website before , we finally managed to create to our own website after we all helped each other by making more research on how to make a website and also by working together and helping out amongst teammates. Teamwork is very important especially in group information because we get to help out each other to get more information and solve the problems faced for the particular assignment and through this I managed to obtain a better interpersonal skills because I managed to work with my teammates without having any troubles with them and also be able to understand the team dynamics better. Therefore through this I also have learned that everybody should have interpersonal skills so that they can communicate better with their teammates and get their job done faster without any problems. We also divided our jobs so that it will get done faster and managed our time well so that we can get our work done without having any difficulties and also we helped each other although we  were assigned with different works because it’s a group project and like I said teamwork is very important.

In addition , in order for me to complete this whole assignment we had to create our own website to put in all our information about this integrated project. At the beginning I had a little problem creating the website because I have never created my own website before but after I did my research on how to create my own website I have managed to create a website where I can upload all the project information and through this I’ve realized that creating a website is really that hard because I have a lot of experience when it comes anything to do with IT because I’m always on these social networking websites and I know they are operated therefore I had some idea on how to create my own website. I realized that through this integrated project that Digital Literacy skills is very important that we all should have because it can help us in so many ways especially in things like this, creating a website and obtaining more information online about the information for this project and also interacting online with friends to make the work easier and faster.

In conclusion , I’ve learned that we require a lot of skills to get something done for example like this integrated project where I had to use communication skills to interact with my teammates and also with the staffs of Tesco and through this now I know that communication skills is very important in our daily lives because we get to interact with other people comfortably without being a afraid. I also learned that working with your teammates is very important especially when it comes to group projects. We have to work together in order to get our job done without having any problems with each other and  also learn how to solve any problem at any give point of time without having any arguments that will cost any discomfort towards the other teammates and therefore through this I’ve learned that interpersonal and problem solving skills is very important. Finally I’ve also learned that Digital Literacy skills is very important skill that we all have to know because its very useful in our daily lives. We get to obtain so many information and do so many things like creating a new website therefore this skill is a very important skill.
