Group: Kristin clarey & Brian McMurrer

Team norms
Communication: make sure to always discuss changes, ideas, and anything that has to do with the project. Building: use only materials agreed upon and specified for prototype and final design. Consult with partner before making a change to either the prototype or design. Presentation: both the portfolio and the presentation need to be professional and well thought out. Finali e e!erything before turning it in. Tasks: ". #rian $ researching e%isting solutions, build testing prototype, and finali ation of project. &. 'ristin $ create a problem statement( create portfolio, and finali ation of project. )keep up with all electronic paper work* p dri!e+ ,. -roup $ team norms, research problem, brainstorming, design ideas, building . testing prototype, finali ing prototype, and presentation/portfolio.
