Ash's Evaluation

Assigning team roles including choice of project lead and planning lead
When we had to choose our team leader and team roles at the beginning of the project, our was completed quickly and easily. We decided that mike should be the team leader, as he has experience in websites and programming (although this doesn't include C#), and he has better communication skills which will be useful in helping others and assigning them their jobs.

How well tasks have been assigned to individual team members
Mike has been doing a good job of assigning tasks to individual team members. If there is a new page to be created, or the page layout needs changing, the work will be spread between me and mike, as we have the most experience in this area. Wayne, as he has at the moment knows little HTML or how to use dreamweaver, has been able to edit the pages text, as this is easy to do. However, Wayne has been enjoying doing Web Development with Colin, so me and Mike are helping Wayne out when he wants to know how to edit a page, or explain to him what certain code does.

Although Wayne has not been able to do too much in the first two stages, he will be a big help in the next stage as we will be doing UML diagrams, and as he has already stated he enjoys creating UML diagrams and using Visual Paradigm, he has already been assigned this task.

How are you finding working in teams as opposed to individual work?
I am finding working in teams a lot better for this sort of project, as there are different skills needed that 1 person on there own can't do. For example, i am good at programming and web development, however, when it comes to design (such as web layout, or art and user interface for the game) I am not good at, which is something that can be done by another member of the team who is good at it.
