Read the following scenario and answer the THREE questions that follow.

Sundaresan was a professor of Corporate Responsibility at a premium management institution. As a requirement of his course, students had to synthesize sustainability challenges, faced by thermal power companies and submit an assignment on them. Though it was an individual assignment, some students sought permission from Sundaresan to work on the assignment as a team. Sundaresan knew that collaboration fosters peer learning, and therefore, allowed them to work in teams. However, he mandated that a team should not exceed three members. While 15 students elected to work individually, other 15 formed teams of three each, and another 10 formed teams of two members each.

Question 19 : As assignment deadline came closer, Sundaresan was approached by Abbas Warram, who chose to work in a team of three members. He informed Sundaresan that Venkamma, his team member, distressed by the death of her grandmother, could not work on her bit of the assignment. Abbas requested for a deadline extension so that she could finish her part of the assignment. By then, many students who were working alone had already submitted their assignments.

Which of the following actions by Sundaresan is the MOST appropriate, given the circumstances?

  1. Give the students a deadline extension, but add an extra assignment for the team as a new requirement
  2. Disband the team and ask each student to work individually
  3. Warn Abbas that such issues should not be flagged to the professor and should be handled within the team
  4. Give extra time to Venkamma to work individually and ask the other two to stick to the original deadline as a team
  5. Extend the deadline for the team while imposing a one-grade penalty for the deadline extension
