[PD] Reflect about your own biases

[sairaheta1]

Coursework content

Think of the times when you are stressed, feeling tired, or rushed, as these situations tend to activate our biases. How may these feelings influence your behaviour when working in a team? Reflect in a 250-word essay.

Additionally, fill in the blanks in the following template and share in your cohort's channel: "Once when I was [...], someone [...]. I caught myself thinking [...]. Then I [...]."

An example: "Once when I was late for an exam, someone was driving very slowly in front me. I caught myself thinking that they are driving slowly on purpose to slow me down. Then I realised that they don't know me and I don't know their situation. I decided to find a polite and kind way of passing them through."
