[Accountability] Panel 1: The four students gather around a laptop, excited for their first client project. Fiona (excited): “We’re building a website for our first client! This is huge!” Shane (serious but excited): “It’s our first big project. We have to make this perfect.” --- Panel 2: The team starts assigning tasks, each with their laptop out, planning the workflow. Raphael (typing on a laptop): “I’ll handle the backend development.” Ivan (pointing at a notepad): “I’ll work on the UI design. Let’s make it visually stunning.” --- Panel 3: The team is hard at work, laptops open, everyone focused. Shane (determined): “We need the client’s business logic to flow smoothly. I’ll draft the initial wireframe.” Fiona (typing fast): “I’m setting up the database now.” --- Panel 4: The group sits down to review the first draft of the website. Shane notices something off with the UI. Shane (looking closely): “Hold on... the UI doesn’t match the client’s preferences.” Fiona (curious): “Didn’t they ask for a minimalist theme with soft colors?” --- Panel 5: The group turns to Ivan, who designed the UI. Shane (concerned): “Who was in charge of the design?” Ivan (regretful): “That’s on me. I didn’t double-check the client’s style guide.” --- Panel 6: Ivan feels the pressure but takes responsibility. Ivan (apologetic): “I’m sorry, everyone. I didn’t notice it sooner. I’ll fix it right away.” Fiona (supportive): “It’s okay, Ivan. We still have time. Let’s catch up and make it right.” --- Panel 7: Ivan immediately gets to work, reviewing the client’s branding guidelines and revising the UI. Ivan (focused, typing): “I’m adjusting the color palette and layout now. I’ll have it ready by tomorrow.” --- Panel 8: The next day, the group gathers around to review the final version of the website after Ivan’s changes. Fiona (checking the screen): “The back-end’s all set.” Raphael (nodding): “And the front-end looks much better. The design matches the client’s branding now.” --- Panel 9: They sit nervously in front of the client, showing off the revised website. Client (looking impressed): “This looks fantastic. You really captured our brand now.” --- Panel 10: The client gives feedback, mentioning only a few minor tweaks. Client (kindly): “Just a couple of minor adjustments, but overall, great job!” Ivan (relieved): “I’ll make those adjustments right away.” --- Panel 11: The group celebrates their first successful project. Shane (laughing): “We did it! Our first client project done!” Fiona (proud): “And we owned up to every step of it.” --- Panel 12: They sit together, reflecting on the journey. Raphael (seriously): “Taking accountability made us stronger. We caught mistakes because we worked together.” Ivan (thoughtful): “Yeah, we didn’t point fingers. We just fixed things and moved forward.” --- Panel 13: The team looks forward to the next project, more confident and unified. Fiona (smiling): “This is just the beginning. If we stay accountable like this, we’ll be unstoppable.” (All members are smiling)
