●      Define specific tasks necessary to complete the project. List them below.

 Research parts of the paper

Complete deadlines

Work as a group

Divide tasks fairly

Share information with group members

Make sure all team members know what to do

●      As much as possible, play to individual group members' strengths, not their weaknesses. That means identifying the skills and resources each group member can bring to bear on the assignment, and planning the project in a way that takes advantage of those skills and resources to produce a stronger final paper. Make a list of skills and resources for each group member below.

 Mayra: Editing/revising, researching, working in a group, contributing fairly

Tayler: Good writer, researching, meeting deadlines

Gentry: Communication, writing in detail, researching

●      Divide tasks among group members. Each group member should be involved in both the research and the writing stages of the project, but that involvement may take a variety of forms. Remember to play to each others’ strengths. More than one group member may be assigned to each task, but one group member should take the lead for each task. Write group members’ names next to tasks they will take responsibility for.

 Mayra: Interviewing professor (second interview), research warrants

Tayler: Interviewing professor (first interview), research intellectual priciples

Gentry: Analyze articles, research assumptions

 

●      Create a schedule, including deadlines for specific tasks and regular meeting times with the entire group. Use the calendar provided, or use something like Google Calendar, which can be shared with group members.
