Team Projects: Practical Strategies for Success In-Person
Thinking of implementing a team project in your course? Team-based learning (TBL) is a powerful pedagogy that fosters problem-solving and active learning. Students can develop teamwork skills important to their future careers. However, team projects can present challenges for both faculty and students. In this session, we will explore what to consider when planning a team project for your course. We will discuss strategies for managing and supporting student groups during the term. You will also receive a few pointers about mêskanâs features useful for group work, along with examples, templates, and other resources.
As part of this session, we will reference a paper written by Dr. Lyle Benson from the MacEwan School of Business, Department of Management and Organizations. It is recommended that you read Dr. Benson's essay Teaching University Students How to Succeed in Group Assignments in advance of the session. This paper was published in the inaugural (2025) issue of Pedagogical Inquiry and Practice, hosted at MacEwan.
