Working with the teamWorking with the team

After the teams are assigned in week three, a Team Working Area block will open up. Use your assigned team areas to work with your team.

The Team forum is for the team to work together to plan and do the team assignments.

The Chat Room is for the team to hold scheduled chats as desired. All students need to participate in the team to earn the assigned points.

I will post graded team assignments in this forum. Each team will have a thread with the evaluated assignment attached. Students will be able to open the threads from their assigned teams.
