Audit Existing Material and Foundation Templates
Retrieve the relevant Bertie foundation template and gather all existing coursework, research notes, and informal project documentation. Establish a comprehensive baseline inventory of known student commitments, academic materials, and preliminary team ideas.
Completing this action establishes a structured baseline for mapping the student-to-venture transition. It prevents duplicated effort and ensures all subsequent analysis builds upon verified academic and personal reality.
The founder must produce an initial diagnostic inventory containing raw data on timetable commitments, university status, and existing academic project materials. This output must explicitly list all preliminary documents gathered for conversion analysis.
Five questions an expert would ask when reviewing your output
Use these to challenge assumptions, pressure-test your logic, and check the quality of this action's output in the context of the parent task and wider venture development.
- 1
Which specific university documents or module frameworks have you audited to confirm the origin of this project?
- 2
How have you verified that your current working notes accurately reflect your actual academic timetable and exam commitments?
- 3
What gaps exist between the default Bertie foundation template and your current stage of university study?
- 4
Why did you select these specific baseline materials rather than including earlier research or team notes?
- 5
How does starting from this specific baseline protect you against unrecorded academic IP claims later?
