When to form teams

• CS2113T: Your team will be formed by CS2101 side in week 1.
• CS2113: Your team will be formed in week 3 tutorial.

Team size: The default team size is five.

Team ID: This will be given to you after forming teams. It has the form TUTORIAL_ID-TEAM_NUMBER e.g, W14-2 means you are in tutorial W14 (i.e., Wed 1400-1500), team 2.

Team composition

We allow some freedom in choosing team members, subject to these constraints:

• All team members should be in the same tutorial. Delay forming teams until your place in a tutorial is confirmed. We do not allow changing tutorials to team up with your preferred team mates.

• Teams of single nationality are not allowed  Rationale: to train you to work in multicultural teams. However, we allow same nationality teams if the only language common among all team members is English. e.g. an all-Singaporean team that include both Chinese and Malay students.

• No more than one exchange students per team Rationale: to increase interaction between exchange students and NUS students.

• Gender balanced teams are encouraged. While all-male teams may be unavoidable at times (due to high male percentage in the cohort), all-female teams are highly discouraged.

• Also note that we may modify teams when circumstances call for it. There is no avenue for you to object. Staying with your preferred team is not guaranteed.
