Working Together as a TEAM

Talent wins games but teamwork and intelligence wins championships.


Team work fosters a deeper understanding and leads to increased ability to apply new knowledge to real life situations.

For students, working in groups, is  emancipated learning. They take turns to teach each other, share knowledge, jokes, and there is reinforcement in this method of learning. Coming together is a beginning and then keeping together will lead them to progress, but it is working together that will show them the way to succeed.

 

A teaching strategy which I use predominantly in my classes to increase student centred team based learning pedagogy is Teamwork. I believe this helps in promoting a deeper learning of the subject/topic in question and this occurs through interaction, dialogue, lots of cooperation and collaborations.

The process of team work enables them to develop their researching skills together and so there is interdependence and they also improve their reasoning and  decision making skills, speaking skills and in the whole process build their confidence and most importantly make learning a more enjoyable experience!
