Week 5 Team Assignment 3

Objectives of Team
Assignment 3

to continue to work in
your team with a new leader and members in other roles, all that were specified
in Week 2 assignment, for Week 5, and

to participate fully
in completing a PowerPoint based on research conducted by your team on the
phenomenon of groupthink and at least 3 scenarios/examples in which groupthink
has had significant negative consequence.

Tasks and Deliverables

Read the section on
“Avoiding groupthink” in the Manning and Curtis book, pp. 256–258. With your
team, investigate multiple examples of groupthink and present information about
the phenomenon and at least 3 scenarios / examples (other than the Space
Shuttle Challenger Disaster) in a PowerPoint presentation.

Each team member must
put their first and last name in size 14-18 font on each PowerPoint slide that
they are responsible for creating.

Your presentation must
cover examples/ scenarios in which groupthink has had a significant
consequence.

PowerPoint advice:
Every slide should have clear, readable text no smaller than 28 point font;
remember to limit your use of full sentences. Each slide should also have some
kind of visual to enhance the communication of that content. Using APA
guidelines cite your sources, including in-text citations. The professional
team product includes an introduction, multiple content slides, and a conclusion,
as well as a reference slide. Better products usually have about 15 to 20
slides (four or five from each student). You may need more for more complex
products. More detailed guidelines on presentation techniques is provided in a
document “PowerPoint dos and don’ts” in the Files section of the Course Menu.

Submit your team
assignment deliverable/product to the team discussion, Files section of the
Course Menu for all to see, and to the Team Assignment area. The presentation
is posted in the team discussions so that you can all work on it, and the team
leader or designee should post a final copy in the Files section of the Course
Menu so other teams can see it. Each participating team member should post the
same final copy in his or her own Team Assignment area so that it can be
graded.

Remember to post the
TLMR (Team Leader and Member Report) in Team discussions, and in your own area
along with the deliverable/ product (PowerPoint).

In-class students must
be ready to present your product to the class at the beginning of next week’s
class.

Don’t forget to submit
your assignment.
