These main objectives of our project were reached through discussions and interacting with our team members. We had five members in our group. Our first meeting was of great importance to the overall project as we were able to simply sit down and discuss the project and how we could work our way around it. We were able to specify what task each individual group member was completing before the next meeting.

There were many problems that we came across, especially with attendance to group meetings due to clashes with classes as some our group were based on a different campus of the University. These problems did arise very regularly and it was sometimes extremely difficult to even arrange a meeting with our tutor to present our progress. We did at some points not make any positive progress more than a week because of these difficulties. The way we solved these problems was to make sure that we did not lose contact with the group. There would always be e-mails from our secretary to remind us of our next meeting, a phone call to make sure we remained focused on the task.

We have previously studied the make up of groups and how we react in different ways when placed in a group situation. The Belbin's team skills inventory gave us an insight into how team members will react in group or team situations. In this theory there are various roles that a team member can "play". This entails the reactions of the team, how each individual deals with the project and strives to achieve their goals. It also gives an insight on how each individual will interact with other team members and contribute to the project.
