The Graduate Student Accountability Group provides a welcoming, safe and productive online space for graduate students to do their work. The group is facilitated by a learning specialist and is designed to help you identify small goals and accomplish them during short work periods.

Comments from previous participants:

“The group is a great way to work in community and accomplish tasks in a set amount of time.”

“DO IT! I was able to tackle lack of motivation and be productive in each session. The group helped me progress through the semester more than I would have on my own.”

The format for each two-hour session is:

• Introductions and micro goal setting in group
• 25 minutes of independent work
• Review micro goal with group and set goal for next 25 minutes
• 25 Minutes of independent work
• Review micro goal with group and set goal for next 25 minutes
• 25 Minutes of independent work
• Debrief and share main goal to be completed before next accountability group
