Learning Team Charter – CPMGT/305 Team 3
Overview
A learning team is defined as a group of individuals who work to accomplish mutual goals and output (University of Phoenix, 2014). Throughout your academic journey, you will have an opportunity to engage in learning that will support you in developing skills associated with the University Learning Goals of collaboration, communication, critical thinking and problem solving, information utilization, and competence and professional values. Learning teams involve group participation and discussions; however, the outcome is for the team to submit one deliverable in which every member of the team contributes. While a grade is awarded to each team member, not all team members receive the same grade as grades are awarded based upon the contributions of the team member. Your faculty member will assign learning teams as students will work together to submit Learning Team assignment(s).

Create a project plan for each Learning Team assignment using the table below. Determine as a group the Project Plan table elements.
As there are Learning Team assignments that will require you to collaborate with your teammates to complete your assignments for the duration of this course, each team member has an opportunity to document how the team will achieve its assignment deliverables. To ensure full team participation, please complete the project plan to establish Learning Team guidelines for your weekly team assignments. Keep in mind that only those who participate in team discussions and contribute to the completion of the assignment will earn points.
Note: On the title page for your Learning Team assignments, only include the names of the team members who contributed to the completion of the team assignment. Please refer to your Learning Team Charter to review Learning Team expectations.
For each Learning Team assignment for this course, establish team guidelines by completing the table below. Learning Team assignments may not be due every week. Please list the assignments due each week. If there is no Learning Team assignment due, list N/A in the category for the week.

Learning Team Expectations
Establish team expectations by completing the table below. Determine as a group how you will address the ground rules for engagement. Each team member should contribute to a discussion leading to consensus around team expectations.
|
Ground Rules for Engagement |
Learning Team Response |
Steps the Team will Take to Address Unmet Team Expectations |
|
Participation How often should team members meet to discuss an assignment deliverable? |
Team members will meet once a week to discus the project goals for each week. We will also future plan for all upcoming weeks during the video call. |
If the team does not hear from a team member about their assignment the team lead for the week will reach out to the team member by text and e-mail. If no response the team member will not be added to weekly assignments if no work is completed. |
|
Collaboration How will we work with others to achieve our assignment goals and work through conflict? |
Team will communicate through group text chat. As well as e-mail as needed. Group will meet Tuesday evenings by video chat to discuss weekly project. |
An e-mail will be sent to all team members after weekly video chat outlining the topics discussed during the meeting. This will allow anyone unable to attend the ability to see what was discussed and what the weekly goals are. |
|
Communication What modes of communication will we use? Where will we communicate? |
The group will communicate through group text chat. As well as video chat. E-mail will be used as last resort. |
If a team member is not communicating with the rest of the team in anyway an e-mail and direct text will be sent to the team member by the team lead for the week. If there is no participation by the team member the team member will not be added to the assignment for participation. |
|
Team contributions What are the expectations for equitable contributions from each team member? |
Each member must communicate in a timely manner with the rest of the team. Each team member must try to participate in project work including assignments and discussions. |
If there is no communication and no work submitted by 6 pm on Sundays the team lead will reach out to the missing team member through text. If the team member does not respond within the hour the team lead will reach out to the rest of the team asking for help to complete the missing part of the assignment. |
|
Assignment deadlines Identify the dates in which team contributions assignments are due. (Include dates for draft submission and final submission) |
Team contributions will be turned in by 2 pm on Saturdays, unless otherwise communicated by the team or team member. |
Week 2 due- 6/11/2022 2 pm UOP time Week 3 due- 6/3/2022 2 pm UOP time Week 4 due- 6/25/2022 2 pm UOP time Week 5 due- 7/2/2022 2 pm UOP time
If assignments are not received and the team member has not reached out to the team through text the team lead will reach out to the missing team member. If no response the team lead will reach out to the group to ask for assistance in completing the assignment. |
|
Other Considerations Include any other special considerations for this team. |
Acts of God or family emergencies that prevent a team member from completing a weekly assignment will not be held against the team member. The team will accept any effort made by the team member experiencing the issue. |
The team will ask this team member what they are able to complete considering their circumstances. The team will come together and complete any additional work needed to complete the assignment. The team will accept the team members effort as participation. |
