Updated Planning Document #1

After reading the prologue by Grego & Thompson, I feel I have a much better idea of what is necessary to planning this project.

1. An initial description of the EEO and it's candidates for admission.
**Example: How are these students different from traditional admission students?
**Example: What does the EEO program stand for?

2. A detailed list of classes offered by the EEO department, with schedules & number of students enrolled.
**Example: Do the EEO class run on a unique schedule?
**Example: Do students enrolled in this program take one or two classes? (Important for scheduling meetings with coaches)
**The larger the classes, the more coaches will be needed.

3. A contract signed by all chosen writing coaches, with a specific list of their obligations.
**Each coach should have a permanent schedule with a list of courses they are serving to.

4. A contract signed by all mentors, with a list of coaches they are responsible for, and detailed contact information of each party.
**Mentors & Coaches should remain in constant contact through Email, Class websites, Phone and available office time for each party.

4. A program (or programs) website orchestrated through Google Sites
**Each coach should have detailed contact information of the students they are serving (emails?) or a class website (possibly designed by Google Sites?) to record meeting times and notes.
**Can also be constructed to maintain contact between Mentors & Coaches

5. Copies of syllabus or course descriptions for each coach/mentor with synopsis of class descriptions.
**Or to be more practical, these descriptions could be held through Google Documents.

6. Examples of previous students work, and how it measures to the University standards.
**Possible rubrics with detailed scores.

7. Reflective journal kept by each of mentors/coaches detailing student struggles and their own experiences in the project.
**Journal could be included as a clause in their employment contracts.

8. Reflective journal kept by each student who takes advantage of this program.
**Although I'm not sure how it can be managed, unless the mentor takes time out of the studio meeting to engage in this.
**May serve better as an open engagement of conversation.
