Team Procedures
NOTE: Actual team assignments are in Blackboard for student privacy reasons; you may just want to go to the "Teams and Procedures" link there.
BEFORE CLASS
- Complete reading assignments.
- Determine which team you are on and remember your team number. (Look below. Try a Ctrl-F find if you are having trouble finding your team assignment.)
- Join the collaborate room. When prompted for your name, prepend your team number and a space to your name. For example, if I were assigned to team 4, I would enter my name like the following, no quotes:
"4 John Marks"
This way, when collaborate "alphabetizes" the students in the class, each team will be visually grouped together. This will make it much easier for the professor or TA to put each team in their private elluminate rooms.
- Listen to and participate in the days lecture (Remind the professor to record the lecture if he has forgotten)
DISCUSSION PERIOD
-When lecture is over, wait for the professor to put each student in her/his private chatroom. Microphones may be used here.
- Read the discussion question once the professor has posted it. The discussion question will be posted to the Discussion Board (and NOT in elluminate itself, this will help ensure that each student knows how to access the the discussion board. Please do NOT repost the question to the whiteboard in elluminate.)
-Discuss and answer the discussion question(s). Post your response to the discussion board AS A REPLY to the main discussion question. Remember to:
1) Make sure your subject line contains the team number (and optional chosen name)
2) In the body of the post, indicate who was present and who was absent from discussion that day
Message or email the professor if you have any questions.
