The present study aims to describe and characterize the insights of elementary school students during the collaborative solving of mathematics problems. A total of 10 elementary school 60-min math classes were analyzed, with each session documented by videotaping the interaction of groups of 3 to 6 children. The study included 41 students in total…

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to identify contextual antecedents for team learning in professional service firms. Design/methodology/approach: Structural equation modelling was applied to establish reliability and validity and to measure the size of relationships. Evidence was drawn from an empirical sample of 210 consultants in the Nordic…

Team-based learning (TBL) is a proven teaching technique that has been employed in many disciplines and may improve performance of lower-performing students. However, much of the TBL literature involves graduate students in the health professions. The purpose of this study was to determine whether students in an undergraduate, introductory…

This article seeks to contribute to the reflection around the training of future designers regarding teamwork. Collaboration, teamwork and negotiations are common everyday interactions that are now known to contribute positively to the design process. This article builds on a theoretical model that was initially proposed as a Ph.D. thesis…

Purpose: Educational technologies such as "Padlet" have begun to transform the way teachers teach, students learn, and teachers and students interact. However, relatively little emphasis has been given to explore collaborative learning (CL) using educational technologies such as "Padlet" as a means of student engagement. Thus,…

Collaborative problem-solving (CPS) learning is increasingly valued for its role in promoting higher-order thinking of learners. Despite the widespread application of role scripts in CPS, little is known about the mechanisms by which roles influence learners' cognition and the impact of goal orientation on roles. In this study, we designed role…

The increasing popularity of the team-based learning (TBL) approach signifies how much the student-centered learning environment contributes to the effectiveness of teaching. Given the need to establish an agreement for groups to communicate their visions for collaborative efforts within the teamwork, this activity provides a basic communicative…

Challenge-based Learning (CBL) is a pedagogical approach that actively involves students in a realistic, problematic and meaningful situation related to their environment, which requires defining a challenge and implementing a solution for it (OIETM, 2015). The CBL methodology was applied by instructors with the support of students, part of the…

This research explored the best shapes and layouts of seating arrangements for fostering process performances of students in studio-style learning spaces, which have emerged in the development of collaborative learning environments in higher education. We conducted a design case study to explore both team and individual process performances during…

Teamwork has been described as a leadership-coupled professional competency in postsecondary engineering education. It has been listed among the most critical professional skills by engineering industries and professional organizations. Here, a mixed-method case study is reported, which used Visual Thinking Strategies alongside a group project in…

Despite collaboration being integrated into business education, challenges remain in preparing students to collaborate in modern organizations. This challenge is partially due to educators primarily focusing on within-team collaboration while, due to increased work complexity, organizations have moved to multiteam systems which also require…

Teachers in a collaborative learning (CL) environment have the demanding task of monitoring several groups of students at the same time and intervening when needed. This withitness (both the situational awareness and interventions taken in class) of the teacher might be increased with the help of a guiding dashboard alerting the teacher of…

A symmetry activity using student-built models was developed in line with faculty-developed pedagogical goals and a collaborative learning framework. The activity took place in a 3-h laboratory portion of an upper-division inorganic chemistry course. It required students to identify symmetry elements for seven molecules using common 2D…

This research explores how faith-based groups experience vocational discipleship within a shared context of generative craft learning. Qualitative interviews were conducted with thirty-one participants from nine different vocational groups to understand their formative experience of collaborative work. This study attempts to gain a critical…

Teachers' digital competence (TDC) should be possessed by teachers in the 21st century learning process because learning resources in this era are not only from one source but many sources along with technological developments. This study aimed to provide an overview of the dimensions of TDC, the level of TDC, obstacles, and solutions to improve…
