Form teams

Select one or two teammates (5 min)

Why two?

• Agility. You can move fast, schedule more easily, and will have fewer disagreements to resolve.
• No loafing. Both of you have to contribute because there's no one else.
• Learning. You'll learn more because you'll have to do more.

Why three?

• Resilience. If one of you is sick, two of you can still make progress.
• Diversity. The more perspectives, the better your design.
• Bandwidth. Less work, accomplish more.

What factors should you consider in selecting?

• Are your skills complementary?
• Do you trust each other?
• Are your schedules compatible with regular meetings?

Here's the process:

• Spend 5 minutes discussing your skills and schedules with people in the class, trying to find a partner that's compatible.
• Make a final choice for partner
