- These pages contain info about which sub-teams are operational each semester and some general comments on what work the teams are focusing on
Note that if there is a Wiki Organizing team, this will be their responsibility. It is a good idea to keep in touch with this person (or team) to make sure that you are on the same page as to what's required for the wiki pages of each team.
Class Wiki Updating
This is still the responsibility of the team lead, even if there is a Wiki Organizing team
Create a new team member list to become a child page of the Team Roster and Alumni page. This template is the Fall of 2011 roster, but names and teams can be updated on the 'input' tab and the wiki markup code will be automatically generated so you don't have to create the table yourself.
Create a new syllabus as a child of syllabi. Work out a general pattern for it by reviewing past syllabi (. Work with Monroe to have a syllabus ready to hand out in the first day of class. Try to have a good balance of team work days and "activity" days such as speakers, forums, teach ins, etcTry to have at least one day per week available for team work. The number of days devoted to teach-ins will be dependent on the number of active teams in a given semester. When scheduling teach-ins, be sure to keep in mind how many people are on each team and the time limit associated (i.e. 5 min per person plus a 5 minute introduction). Additionally, try to have old teams with experienced members present first. A new team or a team with entirely new people will likely not have as much material to present in the beginning of the semester. The number of speakers or other activities is up to you.
Make sure the Challenges for the semester are compiled and Monroe is happy with them. We send all team members a link to the challenges so they can get a better idea of what projects are available for the semester--they really shape the way teams plan their semesters!
