Learning Team Charter – QNT/351 Team E

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).

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?

Request that the team start a form or email line for each assignment and communicate as needed during the week of assignment. Or Every Sunday and rough draft day start a line of communication.

If a team member is not participating the team lead will send a private message to the instructor. We will as a team complete the unmet part of the assignment to assure a completed assignment is submitted

Collaboration

How will we work with others to achieve our assignment goals and work through conflict?

We will use recommended channels of communication as a point of contact. We will also correspond to the whole team as 1 line of communication so no one misses information

As a team, we shall be open to discuss any conflicts or disagreements accordingly first, if unable to resolve the conflict in that manner then we will bring it up to the instructor’s attention.

Communication

What modes of communication will we use? Where will we communicate?

The best form of communication will be to email or text per information provided. Phone calls and conference calls will be addressed as needed.

1. Post a message on the UoP;

2. Send an email to the student;

3. Send a message via text;

Followed by a phone call.

Team contributions

What are the expectations for equitable contributions from each team member?

We will break each assignment up into portions and divide the work as equally as possible and contact one another with any questions.

To make sure everyone is on the same page, we will post a message with our names assigned to selected tasks.

Assignment deadlines

Identify the dates in which team contributions assignments are due. (Include dates for draft submission and final submission)

Request that all draft are due 2days before assignment due date, the will allow the preparer a day to put assignment together and the team a day to review before submittal.

If a team member is unable to finish their portion by the due date assigned, they will communicate accordingly and keep the team up-to-date.

Other Considerations

Include any other special considerations for this team.

Contact team as a group for any delays of emergencies.
