Student development theory has been an important guide in practice; however, few theories focus on both the individual and the influence of the environment.

Veletsianos, George; Childs, Elizabeth; Cox, Robin; Cordua-von Specht, Isabel; Grundy, Steve; Hughes, Janine; Karleen, Darryl; Willson, Angella – Distance Education, 2022

Group and team class decision-making activities often focus on demonstrating that "two heads are better than one."
