Team Ground Rules and Guidelines
What are the general expectations for all members of the team? participate, be responsible for your own work, be respectful, be available.
Communication is key. Please let each other know if you need help ahead of time and not at the last minute.
*Jessica- It is expected that all team members fulfill their parts of each assignments and it is expected that we turn in our parts on the time that is to be determined by us. It is also expected that each team member participates and does their fair share of work. Nathalie- Every member of the team is required to participate on the assignment.
Assignments are due in a timely manner as discussed and agreed upon by the team.
All work needs to be credible and of highest quality to meet the teams expectations as a whole.

Expectations for Time Management and Involvement
(Participation, communication with the team, accessibility, etc.) please turn work in on time so that the team leader can put everything together. Preferably on the weeks with team assignment, have the individual portions posted by friday or saturday.
Aisha: Team members are to complete their portion of group work promptly and to the best of their ability. Any questions or concerns should be posted and addressed as they arise so that we are able to help as a group before it affects the timeline for assignment completion. Every assignment need to be completed and turned in to the group members at least a day before it is due to be submitted to the professor/faculty. This will allow all the team members to view the assignments and give their consent and approval- if it is a group grade. Furthermore, this will also allow things to be fixed if it needs to before the due date. Also all team members to check in throughout the week and to ask any questions that they might have and responding to any questions you can help with or posting ideas you might have that will help with any reports or assignment
Nathalie- All team communication will be done via e-mail, phone, team chat room, or conference call.
Each team member’s assignment portion will be due by the deadline provided by the team manager.
Should an emergency arise, all team members should be notified immediately so that accommodations for the assignment can be made. All team members must sign off final copy of assignment on 48 hours before the assignment is due for any corrections needed.
All team members are equally responsible to review the ongoing draft of the assignment before being submitted for final review and submission.

Ensuring Fair and Even Contribution and Collaboration
What strategy will you use to ensure that all team members are contributing and collaborating appropriately? Describe the communication strategy you will use if a team member is not contributing and collaborating effectively. How will the team manage conflicts between team members?
Help each other out!
Nathalie- Team will maintain consistent communication between all team members regarding assignments and due dates. Assignments and due dates will be clear; all team members are able and willing to assist anyone of the other members.
Keep an up to date time log of all members work contributions.
Phone calls and e-mails will be sent to each member, if no response is heard from the member within 24 hours then the remainder of the group will continue on with the project without the input of that member. The team member that is not contributing to the success and completion of assignment will be notified by the PM that responsibilities have been reassigned to another member and clarification in writing will be issued to said team member.
All efforts by the team as a whole will be used to the fullest of our capabilities available to ensure all members are treated with respect, consideration and understanding.
Team meetings and discussion amongst all members will be used to resolve any conflicts in the group.
If a team member has a question, they need not be afraid to ask the question to any team member for assistance or clarification.
