Title: Minutes from the First Meeting with the Expert (Group)
Course: Informàtica 4t ESO v2 ang > Section: Topic 8. Preparing to Make Contact with the Expert

In all professional work groups, when there is a meeting (whether it’s an internal meeting involving just the group itself or one with other people or groups), notes must be taken on who spoke, the proposals made, new ideas that came about and solutions the attendees decided to apply to the problems addressed. It’s also a good idea to note down ideas that come to mind during the meeting so you don’t forget them, as you will have to wait until it’s your turn to talk.

These documents are very important because you may need to consult them later on or simply prove that a matter was addressed at the meeting.

In this activity, each member of the group has to take notes on what is discussed at the meeting, the different contributions made and ideas raised by the expert, your classmates, the ideas you want to convey, etc.

At the end of the first meeting with the expert you will get together and pool your notes in a single document which must necessarily include the following information:

-          Meeting date

-          Meeting place

-          Meeting topic

-          Meeting attendees

-          People absent from the meeting

-          Questions put to the expert and his/her answers

-          Ideas supplied by the expert

-          Ideas supplied by the different members of your group

-          Meeting conclusions

-          Other notes you consider important

When the activity has finished, name the document notes_expertmeeting1_nameofgroup. Save the document in the group Drive folder and send the link to your teacher.
