Your conference assignment begins with setting up your Research Team Space, you can take a look at some examples from last year here.

I will provide guidance and criteria for the content of your Research Space, but you are free to expand on my criteria. I will also provide deadlines for completing certain tasks, as you will see in the schedule below. This schedule may change, so please keep your eye on this page.

Here are the Spaces you will need to set up:

• A Home page

   

• A Message/questions  Board
• A google doc for collaborating
• A space for Bios with photos
• A space for summarizing your research articles and your Research Proposal
