Collaborative Group Work Online: a toolkit

The Fall 2015 cohort of the Online Design and Teach Fellows [Michele Cabral (Accounting), Klara Karol (Business), İsmet Özkılıç (English) & Alejandro Sanchez (Criminal Justice)] focused their efforts on creating a toolkit for implementing online collaborative group projects. Although group work looks different in all of their classes, they found some common elements to make group work successful.

They are:

• formal team agreement
• project description with deliverable schedule
• scheduled check-in points to monitor progress and team dynamics
• peer feedback/self-evaluation

Together, they've designed a tool-kit to help you launch your team-based assignments online with documentation that you may copy and edit for your own use.
