Tips for Half Group Task (H.G.T)

 

The Half Group Tasks are conducted after the P.G.T.  Since some of the candidates even though getting idea to solve the P.G.T could not able to express his ideas due to communication problem or shy nature.

     For this sake, the Half Group Task is used.  The group is divided in half. E.g.:- If there are (10-12 members) then the group may get divided into 5-6 members.  So in this situation the candidate can able to analyze their different views to solve the task.  The rules and helping materials are same like P.G.T. only.  But the difference is the number of persons.

 Example Scenario about H.G.T.:-
     The obstacles are painted in three colors namely

  • White
  • Black
  • Red

Each one describes one rule.                            

White: - Both the candidate and the helping materials can touch the obstacle at this region.
Black: - Only the candidate can touch the obstacle in this region and not the helping materials.
Red   : - Both the candidate and helping material should not touch the obstacles.


Out of bound area:-
          The areas in the H.G.T which should not be touched are called as out of bound areas.  These areas include the mud surfaces inside the task area and some color codes as described above.


Usage of helping materials and its usage:-   
         The helping materials given are wooden plank(6 feet length), balli (wooden log), and rope.  Along with this they will give a load to carry from one end to another end.  With these helping materials we implement several techniques such as cantilever, fulcrum etc to cross over the obstacles along with the group.  See this and get the idea about fulcrum, cantilever and H.G.T structures.    


Things to follow at H.G.T:-

  1. Never look at the G.T.O while doing the tasks.
  2. Be yourself as I stated earlier in the G.D itself.
  3. Give a good idea to the group if you don’t know any idea just help the idea givers truthfully.
  4. Never violate the rules it is the basic of G.T.O tasks, and in case if you violate the rule, just repeat the task. 
  5. Be an active participant in the team by giving your full cooperation. 

Be positive in your views i.e. take consideration about other members ideas if it is finer than yours.
