Formyourresearch team • Three to Four members per team.
Is working in team good or bad? • Studies on work team – better performance and productivity. • If work teams result in higher productivity in the work force, then the same relationship should also hold in the educational process (Boughton, 2009). • A well-designed team work can facilitate learning and enhance student understanding of unit-related knowledge (McInnis & Devlin, 2002 cited in Goold, Craig, & Coldwell, J. (2008). • Generating deeper levels of understanding requires students to work collaboratively (Chang & Fisher, 2003 cited in Goold, Craig, & Coldwell, J. (2008). Reference • Boughton, P.D. (2009), Student Attitudes Toward Working In Teams, http://www.abe.sju.edu/proc2000/n145.pdf (8.7.09) • Goold, A., Craig, A. & Coldwell, J. (2008). The student experience of working in teams online.
