A Team Formation Framework for Managing Diversity in Multidisciplinary Engineering Project

Abstract: Abstract-Team formation is one of the essential elements in constructing effective teamwork of any team size that requires different skill sets. Diversity in team encourages students to challenge and compete with one another while searching for new ideas, which in turn can lead to a better team performance. In a well-functioning diverse teams, the students who performed poorly may gain benefit by observing how excellent students approach the assignments. They may also benefit by getting advice and assistance f… Show more

“…The team learning aspect provided students a valuable network of learners, particularly as team construction factored in barriers to participation . Teams were set by the instructor with the goal of acquiring the most diverse team possible, including gender, race/ethnicity (to the best estimate possible), math skills, science interest/experience, external obligations, and leadership and collaboration potential. , Evaluations for team placement required instructors to learn about individual students’ goals and challenges.…”

“…However, these same students were more likely to persist in STEM majors if they achieved a C– or better in GChem1 . This suggests that shifting faculty and student perceptions from a personal-deficit model (students are not interested) will help to identify and counteract the existing barriers to equitable participation in STEM classes. , …”
