Overall Reflection For Week Three!
We had a very interesting week. Our drafts were due to Ms King on the Monday but since my group did have all the drafts completed we had to quickly do then in the lesson (however I was the only one in my group who had their draft done). Another we did was we got together as a group and discussed about what we should talk about and started to practice.
Many things were successful this week since we were able to get everything completed meaning we will be ready for Monday! This is because Michelle and I went into over-drive and just worked! We both worked really well together and fixed a few problems that popped up. This week we also worked out who would be doing what on Monday. I will be talking about the product and doing the conclusion. To be honest I don’t see why we need a conclusion but Angela said we really needed one, so I said I would do the conclusion. Another thing I did this week was make the PowerPoint for Monday. It took me quite a while to make the PowerPoint since I was the only one doing but I did (finally) manage to get it done.
The only improve I think that my group needs to do is manage our time better. I was really disappointed that Michelle and Angela didn’t have their drafts done on the Monday so that meant I had to do another ‘P’ instead of working on the quiz. This meant that I had to do the quiz in my own time which I wasn’t really to happy about.
This week I learnt how to be a teacher! Since Angela and Michelle had no idea how to use Quizilla, I had to show them how. It was really fun since Angela is normally showing me how to do everything. I also learnt that Michelle, Angela and myself can work really well together.Since everyone was working well together we were able to get a lot of work done. I thought Angela and Michelle worked fantastic together. They both worked really hard and when one of them needed a suggestion about something, they involved everyone meaning it was a group contribution to the assignment. I am very pleased with the way everything has turned out.

Overall Reflection For Week Two!
AH! Ms King HELP US!
In the second week of our assignment, my group got suck! We got to the the stage where we had no idea what we were doing! Then Ms King came to the resuce! Ms King explained everything to us and gave us some ideas. After this, we were back on our feet ready to complete this assignment. During this week, my group completed our brainstorming (of our NPI’s) and we decided that the NPI that we would do is the Animal Welfare League in Queensland. AWL is an organisation that takes care and homes about 12,000 stray and abandoned animals on the Gold Coast and nearby areas. My group then decided which person would be doing what as well as completeing the brainstorm for our products.
The products we will be doing are:
- A quiz to help the buyer find their ideal pet
- Radio ads that will raise awareness for pets
- WOMF
This will be a lot of hard work and I believe that my group will have to be super fast to get all these tasks complete.However on a lighter note, my group this week were really successful on a few things. These were brainstorming our ideas, choosing our makerting mix parts and choosing our NPI. These were successful since everyone in the group had contributed in some way. Everyone did something in the brainstorming and another good thing is we all came up with a solution everyone was happy with.
The main thing I learnt this week was about the AWL. At the beginning of this assignment, I had never even heard of the AWL. After doing a bit of reasearch, I dsicovered numerous things. I learnt that the AWL have their own online shop and the AWL (Queensland Website) website had lots of information on the AWL.This week my group way better then we did last week. This week we hardly argue but from time to time we did tend to lose concetration. A part from that, my group performed really well this week.

Overall Reflection For Week One!
Before we could start doing anything on our BFM assignment, we had to choose our groups. I decided that the two people that would be best to work with would be Angela and Michelle. This is because all three of us are very organised people and we like to get good marks, so that means each one of us will put in 100% so we can get an A. The first thing my group did was we came up with some ideal NPI charieties we could use.
Some things that were successful in my group was the fact that all of us came up with some brillant brainstorming ideas. Since Angela, Michelle and myself can up with several different charities, we had to think up ideas that would best suite each charitiy but we still had to keep to the criteria sheet. We came up with heaps of different NPI as well as other non-profit charities. Since I didn’t know a lot about must of the NPI and non- profit charities I did some reasearch on each one to get a better idea on what they did. I then shared this information with Angela and Michelle and this helped us come up with a list of products or activities we could use for our NPI.
However, my group needs to improve on a few things for next week. The main thing we need to improve is to be able to get straight to the point and then move on. At first my group didn’t understand what we actually had to do for this assignment so we spent a lot of time trying to figure out what we had to do. We simply could have solved this problem by asking Ms King if she could help us. Overall, if my group can do this (get straight to the point and then move on) next week, our future tasks completed quicker.
The only thing I learnt this week was about many of the NPI’s. Since I didn’t know a lot about many of the NPI’s Angela and Michelle chose, I took it apon myself to find out. I learnt numerous things about each of the NPI’s.
My group got along pretty fine but we did have a few arguments here and there.I will admit I was in some of the arguments but luckly the arguments were solved over time. Next week I would really like to get a lot more work done. I would also like there to be less argue in my group. As I discovered, when we argued we wasted very variable time!

Information on the AWL! ! !
Since my group is doing the AWL, it condered to me that I really don't know much about the AWL. So, I decided to got find some information about who the AWL are and what the AWL do!
The Animal Welfare League of Qld takes care of approximately 12,000 strayed and abandoned animals annually from the Gold Coast and surrounding areas. The AWL receives no Federal or State Government funding for welfare work, relying predominantly on the community for financial support.
The AWL specialises in the care, shelter, and rehoming of dogs and cats. Since 1959, the AWL has opened its doors and hearts to all companion animals in need. As well as providing on-site care at its’ two Rehoming Centre’s, the AWL has a fostering and rehabilitation program that is second to none. AWL also works closely with the Gold Coast City Council in providing the best of care for stray animals during their impound period, with all unclaimed animals then transferring to the AWL for rehoming.
As well as a high focus on rehoming, the AWL continues to increase community awareness about how to end the tragedy of pet overpopulation. Our goal is to bring an end to the euthanasia of healthy animals in Australia through legislative changes, education and awareness. The AWL cannot continue its welfare work, caring for the communities homeless animals without the financial support of the community. The direct costs involved in the rehoming of each animal are approximately $400.00. This cost does not include the support staff that maintain the organisation, allowing the AWL to keep its doors open, or the veterinary clinics, which provide charitable veterinary care to the public.
The Animal Welfare League exists to:
- Find safe and happy homes with responsible guardians for as many abandoned cats and dogs as possible
- Achieve zero euthanasia of all healthy & treatable cats and dogs
- Prevent the birth of unwanted kittens and puppies
- Improve humans’ attitudes toward all animals through education
- Improve the living conditions and treatment of animals in shelters and pounds
- Find a positive solution for unowned cats
- Raise the value of animals in society so that the intrinsic needs of each species are recognized, respected and met
Our Values
We believe that by working in harmony with integrity, optimism, initiative and innovation, we will achieve respect for all animals according to their individual needs and nature.
We Believe:
- Each and every life is valuable
- Zero euthanasia of healthy and treatable companion animals is achievable
- Cruelty is unacceptable
- All animals deserve kind treatment
- Every cat and dog born has a right to live happily in a loving, responsible home
After reading this information I now have a better understanding about the AWL. I now know their values, their purpose and some background information about the AWL. This will be loads of help for my assignment.
