Team Activity - Deleting Data
Working as a Team
This activity is designed to be completed as a team. There are two main purposes for this:
- Develop as a Professional: One of the course outcomes for this course is for you to develop your professionalism and ability to work as an effective team member. This is also a major outcome of the complete program, and it is a skill that employers consistently list as one of the most important traits they are looking for.
- Teach one Another: One of the core principles of the BYU-Idaho learning model is to love, serve, and teach one another. By working together, you will learn this material better as you share your new understanding and learn from your teammates.
