EDI Statement
As for any team, equality, diversity, and inclusion are important for a group to thrive, where people from different backgrounds contribute to the creation for different ideas and experiences within the workspace. Our group, team Foxtrot, had many benefits as each of the members was from a completely different place and also had different perspectives to approach challenges faced during the micro-mouse project, where each of us respected and heard each one’s point of view, therefore, making it easier to gather the best ideas to optimize our project and achieve the best results possible.
EDI statement
Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) are extremely important in a group work project as people from different ethnicities and backgrounds bring new and interesting ways to think about a solution to a problem. Within our team for the Micro-mouse project, we have had a lot of diversity, as our team includes people from different ethnic backgrounds and genders. I think this allowed us to work well as a team as each of us had a different solution to problems when doing the Microhouse that other people may not have thought of. Also having an inclusive group meant no one felt left out so everyone in the group was motivated leading to a higher productivity.
