For this assignment, each group member will write up a 4-5 page report on their own section of the Task Force project. Students do not have to combine all the sections into one report, but it is expected that each section of the report should be coherent throughout the report. Use your group time in each week to discuss the tasks. Individual reports should be shared among group members to facilitate the preparation of the Task Force team presentation.
