Team Formation
Dear All,Now's the time to start getting into teams for your team project! We have created a team formation Google Spreadsheet here. Please add the names and email addresses of your team into the spreadsheet, as well as the name of the company that you will write about (if you have already decided this). Teams should be three or four people, and your team can contain people from both sections.
Don't have a full team yet? Not a problem! If you have a partial team, please list the two or three people that you have in the spreadsheet, so that others can find you. If you are on your own, please check the spreadsheet over the next few days for partial teams.
If you have any questions or problems, please don't hesitate to contact us!
