Zamecnik, Andrew; Kovanovíc, Vitomir; Joksimovíc, Srécko; Grossmann, Georg; Ladjal, Djazia; Marshall, Ruth; Pardo, Abelardo – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2023
Background: Maintaining cohesion is critical for teams to achieve shared goals and performance outcomes within a work-integrated learning (WIL) environment. Cohesion is an emergent state that develops over time, representing the synchrony of different behavioural interactions. Cohesive teams will exhibit such phenomena by their temporal…

Hsiung, C .M.; Luo, L. F.; Chung, H. C. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2014
Cooperative learning has many pedagogical benefits. However, if the cooperative learning teams become ineffective, these benefits are lost. Accordingly, this study developed a computer-aided assessment method for identifying ineffective teams at their early stage of dysfunction by using the Mahalanobis distance metric to examine the difference…
