For this team project, students will be assigned by faculty into teams of three to five individuals depending upon class size.
Teams will receive a project grade based on assessment by the project rubric, which will then be applied to everyone's grade for the project minus points for lack of participation in the development or presentation of the project.
The team leader will make all dropbox submissions for the course so that the:

Course faculty will have only one submission to review and grade.
The PowerPoint presentation will be shared with the class in the Community Café and the actual presentations occur using the Community Café.
The due date for uploading the presentation and the team presentation will be shared by your course instructor via an Announcement in online course.
