Group+Contract

Texas, September 18, 2010

__Group Contract __ Since it is the responsibility of each of us to either succeed or fail concerning group projects. We believe a set of rules be implemented to insure each member positively contributes to the project input. The following set of rules applies to each member of our group:

· I agree to be respectful to each member of the group.

· I agree to come to class on a regular basis. In the result that I am unable to attend class, I will make it my personal responsibility to meet any and all notes from my group.

· Under any and all circumstances, I will get what work I am allotted to do, done and turned in on time.

· If I am sick and unable to make it to class on the date a group assignment is due, I will call my group members to make other arrangements to get my work turned in on time.

· The time and place of group meetings shall be agreed upon unanimously within our group.

· I will be in attendance and prompt for each and every group meeting unless an emergency arises. In such case, I will contact my group leader or any member of the group at least three hours before the meeting date.

· I will do my share of the group work, there will never be an occasion where one group member does all of the work nor will there be a time when a group member does none of the work.

· Each member will agree on the answer for each group problem before it is turned in. In circumstances where agreement is not automatic, each member shall explain how they arrived at their particular solution until a correct solution is clear. If no agreement can be reached, a vote will be taken on which result to submit. If a group member miss to respond to group decisions needing approval within 20 minutes of being notified by text message; major consensus rule will override any future vote or answer the member at fault decides if the decision is critical for the group success.

· I will do everything in my capabilities to help my fellow group members understand each and every concept and problem.

· If I do not understand a concept or solution, I will not hesitate to ask my fellow group members for help.

· I will communicate with my fellow group members about any concerns I have about our group work.

· I will be an active member of this group in all aspects. I will not take answers as fact, but instead confirm final results by working the problem myself and attempting to get the same solution.
