The Rules

To ensure success by all individuals and teams — as well as the integrity of the project itself — the following rules will be established:

1.            All participants will maintain a proper use of the classroom, the laptops, and the time we have in class to ensure success over time.

2.            All participants will keep up with the reading calendar and overall submission quantities/due dates.

3.            All editors will “serve” the groups, not dictate how things are done.

4.            All teams will focus on each individual’s strengths (rather than weaknesses).

5.            All individuals will ask for help by teammates (to support their weaknesses).

6.            All blog entries (and suggested links) will remain in “draft” mode inside the website’s database until carefully reviewed a) by the “contributor” and b) by the “editor” of that week.

7.            All in-coming comments will be carefully reviewed before being published by the team’s “editor” of that week.

8.            All technical changes to the team’s website (i.e. template design, etc.) will be agreed upon by the entire team (not just an individual doing it privately).

9.            All participants will create a NEW Twitter handle to be used specifically for this project, and this project ONLY!

10.        All participants will use their Scorpion Twitter accounts solely for this project and will not follow anyone not directly involved with this project.
