Each team will be presenting the main concepts and terminology in the CTU chapters assigned below by devising a learning game. Game days are listed on the course schedule. This will be a fun way to test your classmates knowledge of the reading on new technologies. Presenting team will get up to 15 points, and contestant teams will get up to five points for successful participation. We will divide the class into six teams.
Teams have the responsibility to deal internally with participation or interpersonal problems.
In addition, team members have the right to report unresolved participation problems to me and I will have the option to conduct a team arbitration meeting. After this meeting I may exercise the option of confidentially adjusting an individual's project points in order to reduce inequities among team members based on the level of contribution. On occasion in the past, there have been a few students who have refused to participate fully in their team's project. In other words, not participating fully with your team will be considered a violation of the Gustavus code of honor for students. If you have bona fide conflicts like a sport or music ensemble which causes you to miss a research team meeting, you are still expected to take on assignments the team provides you and to participate fully in the class projects.
