Progress monitoring
Process management
Conflict management
|
(7.2)
Student Preparation:
The students will be told
about the idea for the project 2 weeks before it starts. New ICT tools to be
used during the project (i.e. using a spreadsheet for survey results) will be
practiced before the project launch.
|
(7.3) Facilitation:
Use of the library and
computer equipment will be scheduled and booked in advance.
|
(7.4)
Progress Monitoring:
Whole class conference
once per week
|
Group Progress
Team checkpoint meetings
as well informally daily checking with teams and individuals on their work.
|
Individual Progress
(7.5) Re-planning:
Since student autonomy is
low there is low risk of the project going off track. 10% additional time
allowance has been included for overrun but the end date cannot be exceeded.
There is an option for homework to be used to catch up if necessary.
|
(7.6) Conflict
Management:
Teamwork rules will be
included in project launch presentation. Students are asked to initially try
to work out conflicts on their own. In the case of a deadlock, issues are to
be raised with the teacher. Lack of participation will be dealt with by
culprits being removed from the project work and set to work on alternative
individual tasks for the duration of the project.
