The first project was done individually while the other 2 were done in groups. During the process of the assignments, there were some argument between the group members but we were still able to overcome it and finish the assignments. We divided our job so that everyone has their own part to do, we also helped each other when problem occurred and this trained our teamwork. Besides than teamwork, each of us also knew more about our own group mates and what is our special ties. So we manage to divide our job in a correct manner to increase working speed and get better output.
