Reflection – Visualization 

 Challenge and selection     As students , one of the problems we face the most is teamwork . Although skills are   necessary within projects , the most complicated thing is to find a way to communicate   your idea correctly to your colleagues . Several times I have been lucky enough to work   with colleagues who think very similar to me , which facilitates communication , but on   other occasions , I have had to use a certain tool to be able to make clear my idea and a   correct plan to work . In one of these cases , all my teammates had different ideas about   how we could develop the work , and reach an agreement we had to capture it in a   sketch .     As we already know , visualization is the tool that makes our idea tangible and concrete .   In our case , trying to describe our ideas only with words was not working , it was   because of this that we decided to implement the visualization , this way we all could   outline our ideas and make the best decisions for our project .     Application     The first step was brainstorming between all of us , we capture all the ideas on a   blackboard . We had done previous research , so it was easy to generate the key   concepts that we thought were important . After that , we analyzed and selected the best   options , which would become our main goal to achieve . We started the first sketch , all   of us were in the same line , this facilitated a lot the communication inside the team and   allowed us to improve our work .     The next step was to clean the sketch we had until we finished our prototype . We   decided to show it to some classmates to get some feedback , later we met to analyze   how we could solve the weaknesses that our partners found . To solve this , we made a   mind - map , where we stated the weaknesses and the possible solutions . Once we had a   concrete idea of our mistakes , we found the best solution .     Insight and approach     Students usually complain when we have to work in teams , it is much easier to work on   our own because we only have to deal with our ideas , even in those cases it is useful to   create a visual idea that represents what we plan to do . Working in teams is usually   complicated because describing the idea that we have in our head is very complicated ,   you have to translate it so that your colleagues can understand it in the same way that   you do . Our team found it difficult at the beginning because we could n’t communicate   with each other , we did not know how to express ourselves correctly , and visualization   was the perfect tool to solve our problem . The visualization allowed us all to share our   ideas and gather them into one , which we knew how to work in a synchronized way 

 because it was reflected the same for all of us . It was also easier to identify our   mistakes on a map and find the best solution .     We could have saved a lot of discussion time if we had decided to implement this tool   from the beginning , but I also think that other tools could be very useful , for example ,   mind - mapping . Mind - mapping is useful when we have to capture information and ideas ,   and , as I already told you , we used brainstorming in our project , so using mind - mapping   could have helped us to organize our ideas and make easier our process .      In conclusion , I think we learned a lot about these visual thinking tools , but there is so   much we have to apply in order to improve our skills .
