Using Contracts to Foster Inclusive Teams

Teamwork can help students learn the course material, but successful team work doesn’t just happen organically. Help teams work well by giving students the opportunity to set ground rules before they begin work, to reflect on their experience, and to provide feedback to their peers. Learn strategies to foster effective teamwork through structured planning, establishing norms, and implementing reflective peer assessments to enhance student collaboration and self-efficacy.
