Students will be required to state their commitment onexaminations, research papers, and other academic work. Ignorance of the rules does not excludeany member of the Texas A&M University community from the requirements or the processes ofthe Honor System.

These groups are voluntary andmembers may be changed at any time given mutual consent. Your team will have a number ofresponsibilities as it completes problem and project assignments.1) Designate a coordinator, a recorder, and a monitor for each assignment, with each of these roleshaving responsibilities defined below. In teams of three, the same individual functions as monitor andchecker. Rotate these roles for every assignment. Agree on “Code of Cooperation”2) Agree on a common meeting time and what each member should have done before the meeting byway of preparation.3) Do the required individual preparation. Each team member should attempt to outline the solutionof each problem before the team meets.4) Meet and work out the complete solutions to all assigned problems. Agree on next meeting timeand roles for next assignment.5) Review returned assignments. Make sure everyone understands why points were lost and how tocorrect errors.6) Consult with the instructor if a conflict arises that can't be worked through by the team.Omitting names from completed assignments.If a student's name appears on a solution set, it certifies that he/she has participated in solving EACH ofthe homework problems in a given problem sets. If a team member refuses to cooperate on an assignment,his/her name should not be included on the completed work.Group work isn't always easy: team members sometimes cannot prepare for or attend group sessionsbecause of other responsibilities, and conflicts often result from differing skill levels and work ethics.When teams work and communicate well, however, the benefits more than compensate for the difficulties.One way to improve the chances that a team will work well is to agree beforehand on what everyone onthe team expects from everyone else.- 6 -
