OneDrive policy

Your Project Engineer has created a OneDrive folder the team can use for collaborative editing of documents. A primary driver for not allowing teams to utilize tools outside of the EDN and Webex is the need to keep the materials for your project from spreading across multiple platforms. To that end, any documents that is put in the OneDrive folder for collaborative editing must be submitted to the EDN once editing is complete. You PE reserves the right to delete files not related to collaborative editing from the OneDrive folder, and, with this agreement, the CE's have not been given access to the folder - they will ONLY be looking on the EDN for your work and work outputs.

Rules, clearly-stated:

  1. CEs and client mentors do not have access to the OneDrive folder, so don't expect them to know, or be able to see, files that are stored there.
  2. The EDN will remain the only acceptable place for project work to be shown, stored, and graded.
  3. Documents that are created/edited via OneDrive must still be submitted to the EDN repository for evaluation.
  4. PEs reserve the right to remove One Drive files which should be in the EDN.
  5. Unlike the EDN, the OneDrive does not have unlimited storage space. Keeping files that should be on the EDN or OneDrive can consume all of the allocated space and preevent access to team documents when they are needed most (this has happened in the past due to extensive storage of testing videos).
  6. OneDrive does not allow simple tracking of who did what to a file. Meaning that individual work on group documents is NOT traceable. The whole team receives the SAME grade on the team documents. Individual student contributions to the project are tracked via Repository commits, EDN forum posts, etc.
