Team Collaboration

We divided the work so that each did one page and another as an optional page. One person emerged as the team leader and kept us on track. One person was good at graphics and did a lot of the images for the site. It was difficult working together, but we sometimes have to work with people we don't like to complete a project. We see that this might help us when we start a job.

Team Diversity

There is some team diversity. We have an African American on the team, and males and females. We don't think this affected the development of the website.
