Innovative Approaches to Teaching and Assessing Teamwork in Higher Education (eBook, ePUB)

Setting Priorities, Using Evidence-Informed Practices, and Avoiding Pitfalls

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This guide will help instructors better understand the skills that underlie effective teamwork, offer strategies for structuring group projects, and provide advice on imparting the knowledge and support that students need to develop highly functional, advanced teamwork skills.

Even instructors with a great deal of experience in structuring collaborative learning projects may recognize the gap that exists between their current efforts in providing students with teamwork experiences and effectively training students' teamwork skills. By drawing on literature from the fields of organizational teamwork and teamwork pedagogy in higher education, the authors identify the processes associated with effective teamwork, relate these processes to teamwork in student teams, and distill and organize strategies for developing students' teamwork knowledge, skills, and attitudes.

Featuring evidence-informed tools, case studies, and best practices, this highly practical text provides everything higher education instructors need to target and advance their students' teamwork competencies while maximizing the learning benefits of peer collaboration.
