Team confirmation in the forum
Once the teams are defined, a specific forum thread will be created for each international team.
Each participant must enter their team’s forum and write a brief introduction message including:
- Their name.
- Their country.
- The topic they initially selected.
- What interests them most within the team’s topic.
- What they can contribute to the group work.
- Which source or idea from Module 1 they consider most useful to begin with.
This step provides a clear record of:
- Who is part of the team.
- The topic each member started from.
- How the group begins to align.
- Which theoretical foundation will be activated.
This first interaction is key to building a shared direction and a collaborative dynamic from the beginning.
How work will be carried out in the forums
The forums will not only be an informal space for discussion. They will be a tool for work, coordination, and process traceability.
The forum must provide clear evidence of how the team:
- Analyses the topic.
- Uses concepts from Module 1.
- Consults and shares bibliography.
- Makes decisions.
- Distributes tasks.
- Discusses approaches.
- Builds the final work.
Key rule
If a decision is important for the project, it must be written in the forum.
This includes:
- Changes in approach.
- Final selection of the topic.
- Distribution of tasks.
- Selection of sources.
- Modifications to the structure.
- Agreements on the final message.
- Synthesis of the work.
The forum acts as a shared memory of the team’s work and ensures transparency, accountability, and a structured collaborative process.
