Abstract

The challenges, issues and concerns regarding the use and assessment of students group work have many commonalities across all engineering disciplines, as well as the methods used to address them. Hence, it is highly significant for the engineering community to discuss and share experiences. This workshop does this two-fold: i) Gets a diverse range of staff from a variety of engineering disciplines and institutions to reflect on, share and discuss in this workshop their practice to make the running and assessment of group work more successful; ii) Gathers teamwork teaching experiences and common challenges across the sector when teaching teamwork and to start identifying methods and approaches for tackling these challenges. This workshop is relevant to all those in engineering education using group work (instructors, curriculum designers, etc) regardless of their level of experience.
