A clear communication plan is an essential part of teamwork. Now it's time to share contact details with your group and outline what a good communication plan might look like for a project topic on your challenge. 

1. Exchange contact details: Make sure you swap contact information with your group members and discuss how you will communicate with each other (you don't need to give the details to us)
2. Explain your communication plan below (e.g. what platform will you use? What rules did you agree on?)

Identify and outline issues that can arise in group work, drawing from your past experiences. What may have led to these problems, and what can you do to avoid problems this time? 

Share and outline successful experiences you've had in group work. Identify what made your experience successful. 

What types of diversity do you have in your group, and how might these different skills/experience/perspectives help your group to work more effectively? 

What stakeholders might have an

interest in or be aligned with your challenge topic (i.e. what groups in society might need the scientific information)? Who would scientists need to communicate their results to? Enter your ideas below.

Use the table below to describe your group, including names and your scientific identities. In the final column, explain how each science identity could be useful in working on your challenge topic.
