I think that my team members are very cooperative and we worked relatively well together.
Some of the challenges that we faced were finding time to meet up to complete the project and trying to separate the workload. This is because our schedules clashed every time we tried to meet up and since it was our first time working together, we did not know what we were good at doing (eg. giving interviews, doing documentaries).
We overcame the challenges by adjusting and trying to accommodate to each other’s schedules and working together for all parts of the project and managed to complete it in time.
I think that the group project has increased my knowledge and interest on issues that affect Singapore. Through the project, I learned more about Eldershield and Medisave, how they are beneficial and useful for the elderly.

i think it was very enjoyable working with my group mates but we faced many difficulties along the way.
1 difficulty was that sometimes my group mates weren't free as they had to go tuition or go out. So in order to solve this problem, we started to free up some of our time so that we can meet up together to do the project.
Another difficulty was that sometimes we would not have the motivation to do our project but instead play with our phones. To overcome this problem, Sometimes we would remind ourselves that work has to be done.
In the end ,we were able to complete the project in time and with quality.

i feel that along the way the group had some difficulties,for example like not being available everytime. But to overcome it, we would split our parts and everyone did their work.Overall,everything was done with quality and in time due to having such hardworking group mates.

Working with my group to complete this project was an enjoyable experience. Everyone cooperated and knew what their roles were therefore we were able to complete this project early.

A challenge that we faced was not being able to meet up on a certain day. However, that was solved when each of us volunteered to finish a specific portion of the project.

This group project helped me realise that even though the government is funding the elderly in our society, the amount provided is not sufficient due to the high cost of living. Therefore we should do our best to help the elderly.
