H-O-T+Template

Directions: Each team member should fill in the chart below by midnight Friday. For each of the three categories, each team member will assign an H, O or T (H=High Performing; O=OK; T=Try Harder) and provide comments. By midnight Monday, the team's Coach should analyze the results and provide an overall evaluation for the team based on input provided. ||
 * ||  |||||||| Assign an H, O, or T to each of the four categories below ||   ||   ||
 * Team Member Name || Date || Operating Standards || Effectiveness in Completing Team Activities || Work Quality || Overall Rating || Justification for Overall Rating || Questions/Comments/Concerns ||
 * Victoria || 02/02/11 || T || T || H || H || Everyone on the team has their piece to add in and everyone contributes. || Seems like there are lots of logistical issues-- when and if to have a chat, where to post and collaborate (wiki, elc, google doc)-, rewriting our operating standards after one of our team members left--really far too much time spent on logistics- this course is intense enough and I don't think the instructors take into account how difficult it is to create a cohesive working group online at times given the heavy load of requirements. ||
 * Beckan || 02/01/2011 || H || H || H || H || I think this team works with ease, and is well organized. I feel more cohesion with this team than the team I was in last semester. We have no issues in completing our assignments, and collaboration has been met with high standards. Scheduling weekly chats have been an issue but since we collaborate regularly via e-mail, and through our team wiki, we compensate. || I think a regular weekly chat would be productive, but not absolutely necessary for reaching our goals. From my perspective, we are all independent workers, and the collaboration with regard to our team project will not occur until we are all familiar with our selected readings and arenas of research regarding EF in ADHD. I have no concerns. I think it will be interesting to see how a week-week chat session will serve us. I think we should explore teleconferencing/ skype since we are all local. It may be a good way to collaborate for us. ||
 * Heather || 2/01/11 || H || H || H || H || Team is strong. We each come with strengths and we have been working well together. || Continue to use our strengths (that we bring individually) which will continue to enhance our team. ||
 * Dev || 02/01/11 || H || H || H || H || This team has been very supportive of each other. Distribution of work is done smoothly and team members are both knowledgeable and willing to share their knowledge with each other. || Given the demands of this course, I believe that if some weeks are relatively easier, it would help everyone consolidate our learning from the "breakneck" pace we've been proceeding at. ||
 * Final Overall Team Rating and justification (to be filled in by Team's Coach): || 02/07/11 || H || H || H || H || So far the team finds that we have great cohesion, balance, work ethics, and work distribution. We come to the table with knowledge that we all find helpful, and continue to develop our relationships for better knowledge sharing. || Concerns that have arisen include the necessity to have a weekly chat. The workload has been an issue and is holding us back from being able to set a more reasonable pace. We are scrambling to have a weekly synchronous session (based on precedent from last semester), and not focusing on the core objectives as such.

Nevertheless, we continue to strive with all of our collective strengths, build relations within the team, stay lighthearted and find ways to connect- even if its one on one. Out team is a team of eccentric- strong willed individuals who are all highly committed to this course and working at the highest possible standards. ||
