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…

Forsyth, Carol; Andrews-Todd, Jessica; Steinberg, Jonathan – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2020
Collaborative problem solving (CPS) is considered a necessary skill for students and workers in the 21st century as the advent of technology requires more and more people to frequently work in teams. In the current study, we employed theoretically-grounded data mining techniques to identify four profiles of collaborative problem solvers…

Bene, Rose; McNeilly, Elizabeth – Papers on Postsecondary Learning and Teaching, 2020
Design Thinking (DT) has recently been adopted in some higher education disciplines as an effective pedagogical approach to enable students to acquire the skills needed for solving real world problems. As a human-centered, iterative process, design thinking is characterized by working with others to understand, define and solve problems using…

Melzner, Nadine; Greisel, Martin; Dresel, Markus; Kollar, Ingo – International Journal of Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning, 2020
Very often, university students deliberately form self-organized study groups, e.g. to study collaboratively for an upcoming exam. Yet, very little is known about what regulation problems such self-organized study groups encounter during their learning process and how they try to cope with these problems. Therefore, this study investigates how…

Dowell, Nia M. M.; Lin, Yiwen; Godfrey, Andrew; Brooks, Christopher – Journal of Learning Analytics, 2020
Collaborative problem-solving (CPS) has become an essential component of today's knowledge-based, innovation-centred economy and society. As such, communication and CPS are now considered critical 21st century skills and incorporated into educational practice, policy, and research. Despite general agreement that these are important skills, there…

Hayashi, Yugo – Cognitive Science, 2018
Integrating different perspectives is a sophisticated strategy for developing constructive interactions in collaborative problem solving. However, cognitive aspects such as individuals' knowledge and bias often obscure group consensus and produce conflict. This study investigated collaborative problem solving, focusing on a group member…

Sundstrom, Meagan; Cardetti, Fabiana – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2021
The growing adoption of active learning techniques in physics courses requires that students productively engage in collaboration with their peers. Although studies in physics education research (PER) have addressed aspects of group work, the problem persists of how to engage students in collaborative work with appropriate self-awareness, adequate…

Beard, Fred – Journal of Advertising Education, 2016
Most educators who teach the advertising campaigns course require students to work as groups. A review of cooperative learning and group dynamics literature, however, suggests that unless students are systematically prepared for group work instructional goals will be difficult to achieve. This article describes how pre-training activities in group…
