** Part 2B: Procedural Elements of Team's Plan
|
|
|
|
|
|
+To complete the assignment as a team, some procedures must be in place. These procedures are aligned with our goals and general communications plan. Further, these need to leverage our strengths as a group, and take into account our weaknessses. They will pertain to decision making, distribution of work, the timeline and the meeting.
|

|

|
|
|
+For decision making, in the most important of matters we will use a modified form of parliamentary procedure, discussing the topic, with an individual making a motion, the group lead calling for it to be seconded and on seconding a call for all in favor to make a sign. If the motion passes, it will be noted in the minutes as passing with the number of votes for being noted, along with, if necessary, the reason. In the event that the motion does not pass, it will noted, and again reasoning being included. Minor decisions will be made during collaborative editing and as we keep in touch on GroupMe.

|
|
|
+Distribution of work will be accomplished through discussion, with each member of the team being included, and working on a specific section. Such as in this assignment, with us collaboratively working on the Structural Elements (part 2a), Harley, Brady and Stella working on the Collective Reflection (part 1), Danielle working on our timeline and Sam developing the procedural elements (Part 2b). Beyond this, we will each go over and edit the other sections, with the intent of harmonizing the paper, and giving us a single voice.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Our timeline is described above, however, to complete these as we intend, we will be required to work quickly and efficiently, completing research and writing tasks quickly and efficiently. To do this, we will need to keep in frequent contact to coordinate along with meeting regularly to make the major decisions. We intend to do this using GroupMe and through that medium along with meetings, holding each other to account. Furthermore, our timeline is extremely tentative, and various deliverable dates are subject to change.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Meetings will be held weekly, with an agenda posted two days before. These meetings will be held on Skype, lead by Sam Flint and with each member participating, discussing the agenda and anything else that comes up. This will include progress reports, research summaries, continued planning and updating of the timeline. All important decisions will be made during these meetings, rather than on GroupMe. In addition to the agenda, minutes will be taken by Danielle, the group secretary.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+It is through these procedures that we intend to complete our final project. By using modified parliamentary procedure to make decisions, a fair and equitable distribution of work, a fluid timeline with constant discussion and weekly meetings, we should be able to accomplish our goals.
