Team Assessments
TinnX has been able to do a great job this semester in completing their goals and objectives they have set out to accomplish this semester. Every week during Engineering Design VII, the group met to work on the deliverables required for the project, attended meetings with faculty advisors, and also did work in their own free time to advance the TinnX project. The group believes that the progress and work that has been done is on par with the standard we set for ourselves, and will continue to do so in the upcoming semester as well.
All responsibilities have been carried out successfully this semester, despite a large course load for our team members. Tasks will continue to be distributed based on a member's area of expertise. Large deliverables will continue to be worked on as a team.
