Team Collaboration

Our team gladly worked together. We went to our team captain’s house and helped each other with our pages. Brandon helped everyone make sure we were using the right HTML codes and uploading pictures correctly. He also worked on the Tales of Gods page and putting the website together. Rachel, our team captain, made sure everyone was doing their part in this project. She also worked on completing the After Death page. Jucel worked on animation and the Creation and the First People page. Melissa helped look over everyone’s page, correcting grammar, spelling, and mechanics. She worked her page, Myths and History, as well. Alica worked with Melissa in proofreading and completed her page, Astronomy. 
We split up all the work evenly among our five team members. Everyone was given a topic to write about and an extra task to help complete the website to the best of our abilities. We assigned the extra tasks according to each of our strengths and willingness to do it. Brandon Slater was very good at HTML codes, adding color, pictures, navigation bar, and banner. Jucel showed interest in animation and was determined to figure it out. Rachel showed eagerness to be team captain and keep the team working hard. Melissa and Alicia wanted to proofread our site so that our website would not have as many mistakes and look better. 



Team Diversity

We are all different in our own ways. Rachel is Caucasian and likes to play sports, especial water sports. Jucel is Filipino, he is Catholic, and he likes to play sports and use computers. Alicia is Hispanic, Catholic, and likes to watch T.V. and dance. Melissa is also Hispanic, Catholic, and she likes to read and talk on the phone. Brandon is Canadian, Catholic, and likes to play guitar. We all go to the same school and are friends, so not knowing each other wasn’t a problem.
