Tips:
1. When you work with your group, DO NOT choose the people who don’t have a common time that you can work together. Choose people that you always see each others before or after school, or study lab, etc. Cannot meet with each other should not be an excuse for not finishing the project or turn in late work.
2. Please DO NOT use internet as the major communication tools for your project, computers and internet problems always happen.
3. If you have questions, email immediately or come to me in person, do not wait until you have Mandarin class to ask.
4. READ your requirements and rubric!
5. If you are leaving early for the holiday, it is YOUR responsibility to turn in ALL works early including the presentation.
