| Diverge/Converge. Combing our different strengths to work together towards the same outcome. |
| State agreed team goals and priorities: What are your expectations around grades? |
| B+/A- |
| What learning do you want to get out of the project? |

| What values do you bring to the project and how do these inform your practise? |
| Work ethic will get all the work done |
| How do we recognise and harness difference in our learning and working styles? |
| Opposites: at least everyone will be learning at each point of the process. Giving everyone space to do their thing/‘shine’ |
| How collectively or independently should we work? |
| Working independently then coming together to compare and share. |
| How will we set goals and track our progress against them? |
| Tracking: Checking upon each other. Updating on Facebook. Touch base frequently and at each stage of the project. Evaluate how we are going through feedback from client, lecturers, and peers. Setting: Setting regular goals, tasks, and timeframes (each week). |
| How much time do we expect to give to the project? |
| 7 hours per week, including at least one meeting per week |
| Do we expect equal contributions of time and effort? |
| It will vary on the stage of the project but we expect the contributions to equal when averaged out over the whole project. |
| When and how often, will the team meet? |
| Weekly at least. When will be confirmed each week but aim for Tuesday afternoons. |
| How, and how often, will we communicate outside of structured class or meeting times? |
| Whenever necessary. Everyone is expected to check the Facebook group regularly. If someone is not going to be able to attend a meeting or class they must let another team member know. |
| How will decisions be made? |
| Group discussions. |
| How will we handle disagreements or differences of opinion? |
| Find a middle ground. Discuss. Vote if not able to come to an agreement. |
| How will team members give and receive critique? |
| Nicely, constructively, sandwich, with lollies. Offer other options or suggestions when possible rather than just shooting down ideas. |
| How will we evaluate the contribution/engagement of individuals? |
| Involvement with blog. Meeting/trying to meet individual tasks and goals. |
| How will we engage with other teams? |
| Sharing info, bouncing ideas. Phillip will be our representative and team liaison. |
| How much money and/or resources do we expect to give to the project? |
| TBC: Will be confirmed when we know what our deliverables will be. |
| Do we expect equal contributions of money and/or resources? |
