9. Participation
Every team member should be participating in each challenge.
Dont just let the people that are good with technology do everything. If you already know how to do a task, coach someone else on your team who doesnt (tell them what to do dont do it for them!)
The purpose is for everyone to get some hands-on experience!

10. Team Reflections
The last stop before you can cross the finish mat is to have each team fill out a Reflections page on the Amazing Technology Race Wiki.
In order to be prepared, be thinking as you complete each task how you could use this in your classroom.
