Oxford Research Summer Reflection #1

For Group 3, OSEP

I've become more aware of SDG's mission. I learnt Excel for quantitative analysis and NVivo for qualitative analysis.
We worked out our proposal. The two biggest risks that remain are

  1. We're still unsure about the feasibility of this proposal.
  2. How much of a difference will our research really make?

What would I have done differently?

  • I got to know Monday from Isabel, a very useful platform for teamwork.
  • I would have got to know my teammates better: what's their aspirations? Where does their expertise lie? What do they want to get out of this project?
  • For my teammates, I would have suggested making a distinction between self-set deadlines and informal check-ins. This is to avoid unnecessary nervousness.

Thanks for reading.
