—Outside
of class:
—Work Ethic: How much time should
we spend on reading each night? What do
we need to do as we read? What is our
division of labor (writing prompts, discussion questions, activities)?
—Accountability: What happens of some
members of our group drop the ball?
Forget their book? Don’t finish
the assigned reading? How do we prevent
ugly situations? How do we enforce the
expectations?
—In
class:
—Work Ethic: What are our
expectations for discussion? How do we plan to spend class time?
—Accountability: What happens if two
of us (or all of us) starting losing our focus?
What happens if the bell rings and we haven’t accomplished everything we
were supposed to do?
