Algorithm =

Honor self-formed teams (option

A) unless they are obviously

unbalanced.

Form additional teams (option B),

honoring any stated constraintsand, secondarily, maximizing the

number of well-balanced teams.

The TTEam is done crunching...

If, in retrospect, you are not

happy, you are free to arrange

a mutually agreeable trade and

tell us about it.

A blast from the pastFrom: mbianco@stanford.edu

Date: October 24, 2005 10:40:53 PM PDTThis is life. Decisions get rushed, corporate, family, whatever. In this sort ofsituation I usually rely on gut instinct when I don't have that much to go on andmake the best of it. If you get along really well with everyone on your team,-Awesome! If not, you can still be civil with your teammates, work well together,have a successful project, and good experience in the course. -MarkB

From: skogstad@stanford.edu

Subject: Re-revised version of teams

Date: October 27, 2004 9:55:29 PM PDT

Here is yet another version of the teams. We will only accept pointers

to dislikes that you had send us previously and attempt to correct themif easily accomplishable. The TTeam also has other things to do andsince some of you have send multiple versions of requests and at thelast minute, we had to compromise. If you want to make any otherchanges, come to the loft tomorrow at 3:30 and try to form your ownteam! PLS

Project Preferences Advice

Discuss with your team. Recognize that differentsub-groups within team may lean different ways. Beopen.

Welcome a chance to learn a new skill area Dont just pick what you are comfortable with: stretch, learn

and come up with a more novel solution than the experts Consider picking a couple of different kinds of projects

among top few choices (e.g. automotive versus non-automotive).

If you think your top choices will be hotly contested,

pick less likely ones as (agreeable) backups. Consider global/non-global preferences but dont

make enrollment in ME310x a factor.

Talk with TTeam members & coaches.
