Benefits include building authentic work-place skills,exposure to varied perspectives and valuable insights from other students,and the potential to learn more effectively than one could on their own.

    Date: Monday,January 14,2019 | 12:00pm to 1:15pm Facilitator: Tris Utschig Why is it that so many student teams fail to live up to their potential? How can we design a process to create and manage more effective student teams? This workshop will introduce the research-based CATME team-maker and peer review tools. This online platform can be used directly,or its ideas adapted separately,to help produce high-performing teams in the classroom. Participants will explore some of the factors that research has uncovered for forming and managing effective student teams,and we will utilize the CATME system to observe how these factors can be operationalized.  –  December 31, 1969
