DSF Fall 2023 Learner Log Entry #3

Prompts

Following the Rose/Bud/Thorn model:

The rose/bud/thorn learning model is a simple but powerful tool for reflection and improvement. It encourages people to identify positive aspects (roses), challenges (thorns), and opportunities (buds) in a given situation. This information can then be used to plan for the future and make changes as needed.

Here is how the rose/bud/thorn learning model works:

  • Identify roses. What went well? What did you enjoy? What were you proud of?
  • Identify thorns. What challenges did you face? What could have been done better? What did you learn from your mistakes?
  • Identify buds. What opportunities are there for growth? What are you curious about? What new things would you like to try?

Rose:

The highlight from the previous FOSS session, such as something you found particularly interesting. This could also be something you're excited to implement now.

  • FOSS session 3 was about Project Management: it is the use of specific knowledge, skills, tools, and techniques to deliver something of value to people. My knowledge about project management was very low before this session. I did appreciate the message the instructors were able to convey: it is important that your project is well organized cause a well organization set the root for a good projects. As in the previous FOSS sessions, I have been surprised by the different important things you need to consider before starting a project.

Bud:

Something that you are looking forward to digging into deeper. This could also include ideas on how to apply concepts to your research in the future.

  • I am still struggling with the FOSS homework, but I want definitely to write the project management for my research.

Thorn:

Something that was challenging that could be worked on, such as anything that wasn't 100% clear and could be elaborated on. Any sticking points should be addressed here.

  • Actually, this session made me thing more about project governance and I want to go deeper into the project governance of my lab, since I do not think to know all about it.
