Any other feedback? * 1. Prepare – Setting Boundaries * You just joined a study group. One member keeps asking you to proofread all their assignments. What’s the BEST way to handle this? Say nothing and do it anyway to avoid conflict. Tell them directly that you don’t want to help anyone. Explain politely how much time you can realistically commit and suggest alternatives. Ignore their requests until they stop asking. Write down 3 qualities you would look for in a peer before deciding to collaborate and 3 boundaries you want them to uphold. * 2. Establish – Defining Roles * You and two friends are planning a class presentation. To avoid overlap and confusion, what should you do first? Wait until the night before to see who shows up. Assign each person clear roles and agree on expectations. Let everyone work on whatever part they feel like. Do the whole project yourself to make sure it’s correct. Imagine you’re starting a new project with classmates or coworkers. Write two norms you would set about communication preferences or timelines. * 3. Engage – Conflict Resolution * During a group project, two peers argue over who gets credit for an idea and presentation. What’s the BEST way to resolve this? Take sides with the person you like and know more. Avoid the issue and hope it goes away. Suggest a calm discussion to recognize contributions and find a fair compromise. Ask the teacher to handle it immediately without trying yourselves. Think of a situation where you needed to give feedback to a friend, classmate, or coworker. Write it in a way that is clear, constructive, respectful, and helps the person improve without hurting the relationship. * 4. Release – Ending Respectfully * You’re stepping down as team leader of a project group. What’s the most responsible way to exit? Disappear without telling anyone. Hand off responsibilities clearly and thank members for their efforts. Criticize the group for its problems before leaving. Promise to stay in charge until someone forces you out. Write a 2–3 sentence message you could send to end a group project on good terms while keeping the door open for future collaboration. * Any other takeaways or commitments from what you learned in the session? * Thank you!
