Teamwork is an integral part of leadership, and many teamwork skills are also leadership skills. This chapter explains how instructors can help engineering students build their capacity for leadership while working in teams.

School psychologists are well connected in school and district communities and may consult or collaborate with just about everyone: school and district administrators, family and community members, general education and special education teachers, and related service providers such as speech-language pathologists, occupational therapists, physical…

In interprofessional (IP) workplace education, course and project leaders need a deeper understanding of how students learn. Basically, in IP workplace learning students learn from each other, from the affected agents (patients, clients, children, youth, or elderly), from the staff, and from using multitudes of artifacts. Most of these…

Virtual collaboration and teamwork have long transformed many sectors like business and healthcare, and higher education is no exception. However, unlike many other sectors, literature in higher education has primarily focused on team learning in the online context. Most works center around recommendations for effective technology platforms,…

Creative virtual teamwork (CVT) has become relevant for many domains of our daily lives: during the pandemic, school classes, business collaborations, and even private personal interactions took place online.

Collaborative problem solving (CPS), as a twenty-first century skill, is critically important for both living and life-long learning. Motivation in CPS equates to students' needs to recognize their efforts in collaboration.

Although shared leadership is typically considered a beneficial leadership approach, findings reporting its effectiveness are mixed. By integrating implicit theory and the "Too-Much-of-a-Good-Thing" (TMGT) effect, this study hypothesizes that both too little and too much shared leadership restrict team creativity and employee creativity.…

The aim was to understand the barriers and solutions to co-creation, reflect on applying co-creation in…

Student entrepreneurship can take the form of solo or team efforts. While a positive and supportive university context is likely to increase entrepreneurial activities in general, it is unclear whether this effect is equally strong on both forms of entrepreneurship and for all types of students. Focusing on students embedded in universities, we…

Higher engineering education programmes increasingly include courses characterised by real-world problems and student collaboration in multidisciplinary teams. Research findings demonstrate that students remain limited in perceiving and meaningfully bridging disciplinary differences in these course contexts. Drawing on the literature on boundaries…

Behind every thriving school or district are deeply interconnected teams that consistently engage in a reciprocal transfer of learning. "Leading with Intention" aims to make this process visible by helping leaders and teachers understand how their thinking impacts their decision-making and the overall well-being of their learning…

In this paper, we explore measurements of design creativity through metrics related to the processes used in designing and relate them to the metrics used in psychology for idea creativity, ie, novelty and fluency. Our goal was to test the reliability of psychometric measures of creativity to assess creativity in team design. We studied 19 teams…

While disruptions to typical education, special education, and psycho-educational service delivery practices in response to the COVID-19 pandemic have dissipated, their impact magnified educational systems' overreliance on evaluations to determine eligibility for special education and related services. Given that the potential for future…
