You might assign each team member with
responsibility for one EXHIBIT each, or
you could work in smaller groups on each
THEME

It is worth bearing in mind at this point
that visitors have different preferences.
Your exhibition should attempt to use:

- VISUAL
- AUDITORY
- INTERACTIVE / 3D COMPONENTS

It is important as a team to write down all
the TASKS in a simple list or in a GANTT
Chart, indicating how long it is going to
