Team Collaboration
It was fun working with a responsible and proficient team. We all contributed to do the best we could. Without each other, we wouldn't have been able to suceeed in making such a beautiful and sucessful website. As this was our first time creating a website, we believe we did a very good job because we took each other's strenghths and used them to maintain organization and creativity. At first we were worried about how to make the website win. But now, we are more concerned about producing a website that we can reflect upon with pride.
Team Diversity
All of us have different outlooks about certain situations. For instance, while we usually agree about how we should treat our friends, we sometimes disagree on clothing and music choices. Our differences are the qualities that make us unique. For example, Shalaya decribed how plastic bags can harm many different animals. She took her love for animals and she wrote about how plastic bags are hurting wonderful aquatic animals. Anthony took his interest in cars and used it to write about how electric cars can save oil and stop polluting the air. Another Anthony, wrote about energy-efficient homes and how they can have solar panels on the roofs to absorb energy from the sun. Sidia wrote about solar power and how it uses the sun to convert it into energy. Peter wrote about biofuels. Biofuels are made up of plants.
