As a group, we believed the most important part about the community agreement to be the words “patient” and empowering”. We decided these two words best described what the group should be about. A sentence we decided would be a great addition to the community agreement was, “As students we will keep an open mind and respect one another’s ideas and thoughts”.Â
Group agreement:At the beginning of every study session we will create a google doc that the entire group will have access too and at the end of the meeting we will decide who will be the secretary for that week. Everybody will take a turn.We created a group chat on Whatsapp because it would be much faster than utilizing email. If a person must miss a session we can inform the person of what they missed through the group chat. We can make sure that we are all on the same page and ask each other questions on topics we don’t understand so that we don’t fall behind. We can go out of our way to involve a member of our group if we notice they aren’t participating, the reason might be they don’t know what’s going on, so we can try to get them up to speed. Another way we can make our group members feel safe contributing is by actively listening and agreeing with what they are saying. Contemptible disdain, hate and disrespect are not welcome here. As a group, we are entitled to respect and let’s treat each other with patience and compassion by listening to each other, not to ignore and belittle one another. We as a group have the privilege to communicate, ask without hesitation, show and compare our work (not by plagiarizing). If a member of the group believes the community agreement is out of date or needs an addition to it, they can bring it up to the rest of the group and we can all talk about it and add it with open minds.
