College logistics
Agree on a workable student group-project plan
Divide the project by deliverable. Give each one an owner, a review partner and an internal due date earlier than the real deadline. Add a separate task for combining the pieces. Read the syllabus and assignment sheet for rules on collaboration and AI use before anyone starts.
Course and assignment: [ ] Final due date and time: [ ] Collaboration and AI policy, quoted: [ ] Policy questions for the instructor: [ ] Deliverable: [ ] Owner: [ ] Review partner: [ ] Internal due date: [ ] Depends on: [ ] Done when: [ ] (Repeat the block above for each deliverable.) Integration task: [ ] Integration owner: [ ] Integration date: [ ] Final read-through by: [ ] Submission owner and method: [ ]
Integration and policy gaps
Plans that split the work often skip what happens after the pieces are done. Someone has to merge sections, unify formatting, match citations and make the result read as one document or presentation. Without a task and an owner for that, the project stalls at the end. Check that no review partner is also the owner of the same deliverable. Compare each task with the syllabus wording on collaboration and AI use, and quote the policy in the plan. If the policy is unclear, ask the instructor before assigning anything.
Check whether this plan has a task, an owner and a date for combining the pieces into one submission. Compare each task with the quoted course AI policy and flag any that might break it. List every dependency that has no earlier due date. Quote the line you are flagging. Do not rewrite the plan.
Confirm the plan with the group
Send the draft to every member and ask each person to confirm their tasks and dates in writing. Move any date that conflicts with an exam or a work shift. Put the integration task on the calendar with a named owner and a time slot. If the AI policy is ambiguous, email the instructor the exact sentence and your intended use, and wait for the answer.
