Interact with the team while making sure to own up to their individual contribution.

Will the students publish their work?
I definitely encourage students for publication because they do learn a lot during the publication process but whether every work ends up in a publication or not solely depends on the effort put in by the team.
Is there a certain period the students need to spend in the group?
Based on my observation, a student can feel a sense of achievement about a topic if the student can spend at least 2 - 3 terms in a group with commitment.
