It is not expected that you complete these Tasks prior to your first meeting. These tasks will be completed progressively during the semester.

Groups will use Teams and Miro as digital tools to manage the project proposal. Each group is expected to create their own Miro board and Teams folder and provide access to your Lecturer.

The documents relating to the group tasks below must be uploaded on Miro at least one day prior to your Lecturer- Group project meeting [Refer to Project Meeting Schedule on Canvas].
