Learning Team Goals (This is not for individual goals but for the Team’s Goal – as one)
Learning Team C’s goal is to become a successful collaborating team. To work together in a fashion that

our Team Goal.

Team Ground Rules & Guidelines

All team members are expected to be respectful to one another. If there is a disagreement
between team members, the issue should be approached in a positive manner.

Communication between team members should take place either in the team forum or the Wiki
that has been set up.
Team members will be expected to participate at least one time every 48 hours either to the team
forum or team Wiki to discuss progress of assignments or new ideas regarding team
assignments. If a team member will be absent for a period of 48 hours or longer, a 24 hour notice
should be posted in the forum so that the rest of the team members are aware.
Lack of participation on a 72 hour period will result in an e-mail being sent to the instructor so
they become aware of a possible issue. Continued behavior will result in removing the team
members name from group assignments. This will be voted on by the remaining team membersmajority rules. The team member responsible for submitting that week’s assignment is expected
to make the appropriate changes before submission.
All portions of the team assignments are to be posted to the team forum/Wiki by 7:00 PM Pacific
48 hours before the due date. That way time allows for proper corrections of the assignment
before it is turned in.
All work is to be submitted using proper APA format, including the reference page. Final drafts for
team projects are to be posted by 7:00 Pacific on the due date for the team to make a final review
of the assignment.
If a Team member fails to submit their portion of the assignment on time, a notice will be sent to
the instructor and team member. If unable to make contact, the delinquent team member will
have 24 hours past the deadline of his/her portion of the work before he/she’s name is removed
from the assignment. The work will then be divided evenly and fairly among the remaining team
mates.
The team is to meet twice a week to discuss weekly team assignments and the progress of each
member’s assigned portion.
