- The framework seems to be working, so I'll continue that
- Using post-its and Manila paper seems to work, so I'll continue with that as well
- Having to explain to their peers ensures that they think through their plans as a team
- Get feedback at the end of the seminar
- Allot around 1.5 hours for the creation of project charters. Be present for consultations.
- Since the next seminar will have the same objectives, the project charters of this one should be reviewed (so that centers could build on top of existing projects). This would also address the feedback that the examples were projects of a different kind
What worked
- The order of the discussion was good, discussing clearly the goals of each workgroup
- The culminating activity w/c synthesizes all other workshops enabled the participant to concretize ideas through development of activities in the center
- The process was very clear and well presented to us. The instructions on how to do a project charter was very organized
- Good workshop activities because it develops critical thinking
- Materials properly provided
- The things that are needed to be done are explained properly
- The procedure, method and topics for the workshops are good. It is enough for the students to come up with a charter.
- Everything—workshops, sports (although it was a bit rough), food, venue, classes & talks
- Was able to disseminate the message of the pope to the participants so that they may deliver it to their respective localities/study centers :-P (sic)
- Good for knowing the true strengths and weaknesses of the study centers (i.e. “effective communicators”)
- The workshops produced/encouraged a lot of good outputs (projects) from the participants
- The workshops were instrumental in recalling the messages and lessons learned from world youth day 08
- The groupings really helped a lot to the production of result as opposed to an individual approach
- It was a good way to remind every youth regarding the Pope’s message during WYD08
- The introduction of making a project charter is effective
- The workshop topics are good and the reading materials are very helpful
- Team discussions are well-organized and well-supervised
- The process of breaking down the objectives and topics is also effective
- The explanations were good
- The process of making a project was explained very well
- The order of the workshop was just right (the things to be done each day)
- The collaboration of each group for each activity
- The speaker was clear in giving instructions on what each one will do and the instruction itself
- The steps and time (pressures) constraints were good. To improve them you’re gonna need more than 3 days or devote 2 whole days for this.
- Also, the system of “assignments” does the trick for recharging creative juices by having the project formulation during free-time w/c are (more) precious than the workshop time…
- Presenting them in front of a crowd every step ensured that the body has made it to the next level.
- Good for starting new projects
- Good topics, good delivery
- Very much applicable
- There is enough time to make outputs
- Great lecture/easy to understand
- Organized/step by step approach
- Well planned topics and activities for the workshop
- Resources are enough and ready in making the outputs, we just need really to think and conceptualize the project
- Key persons are present and ready to help answering questions and queries
- Step-by-step project conceptualization and dev’t
- Project charter samples
What can be improved
- Schedule of the talks – allotted time for the last workshop. Since concrete activities needed to be created, more time can be given to properly facilitate the development of projects
- The allotted time for the creation of the project charter was lacking. Perhaps one full hour and a half would do.
- The allotted time for each workshop is not enough. I think that for the preparation of the presentations there should be more specific times allotted for it to be done properly.
- Very little time is allotted to write the charter. Also, there should be a minimum number of projects to be made (maybe 2).
- Samples of charters should also be from past projects of some centers rather than from other countries.
- There should be a preliminary seminar like this in preparation for this event in every center so that we would be more prepared about our proj and we will just improve here in the seminar.
- More time for the workshop is needed, or a particular time is dedicated for the lecture independent of the “working time” and vice versa, instead of working during breaktime, so to monitor more the work
- Lack of time to develop the projects so immediately give it to our directors
- There were instances wherein the time constraints played a factor to the finishing of tasks
- Lack of time for some activities
- The allotment for the drafting/accomplishment of the project charter
- Better materials for presentation (maybe powerpoints bec. post-its and manila paper are messy)
- The time to prepare was not sufficient, more time could have been allotted for it
- The message of the Pope should have been discussed by the whole class for even just a couple of minutes
- The steps and time (pressures) constraints were good. To improve them you’re gonna need more than 3 days or devote 2 whole days for this.
- Kulang sa oras yung formulating the project plan. It’s possible that the brainstorming session is abridged
- Feedback on past/similar projects was not discussed—NOE of other centers (experience of the local councils of respective centers)
- More examples of project charter (?)
- Perhaps on time management, more time on preparation of outputs
- Other inputs/projects which can be used as a basis
- Project mgt handouts
- List of possible references to help develop project (websites, blogs, etc)
