I try to implement teamwork every day. My students share responsibilities in tasks that are assigned.
Teamwork makes an huge impact on the group
Effective communication is crucial for a successful team, teamwork makes the dream work!
Team work is the key to the success of any organization
Setting norms, each time a group is working together, is so important. And I think it can also be challenging because the norms then require group members to hold each other accountable. Even adults struggle with this part of team work.
Removing a toxic member from the group too early can actually be counterproductive because it can lead to a lack of trust in the group and wondering of "Am I next?" instead talk to the member and get a commitment for improvement.
I learned that teamwork is is a process but is a vital part to building relationships and trust in others. A key component in the workforce. The acronym TEAM was another new thing that I learned. I can use the acronym and mindset with my students that everyone achieves more when we work together.
Effective teamwork requires maintaining clear roles and effective communication.
Multiple members of a team solve problems more accurately
Having students work in small groups is a necessary activity for students to experience. Their needs to be clear defined roles for each group member. All roles must be intentional and related to the topic at hand.
