Forming Student Groups and Teams: What is New and What Works in the Remote Environment

Keywords: groups and teams, virtual team formation, remote teaching and learning

Abstract: Forming student groups and teams presented additional challenges in the remote learning environment, particularly in terms of socialization and building trust among students. This roundtable discussion is an opportunity for participants and the session convener to share how they met those challenges and what they learned from the process. The goal is for everyone to walk away with creative, effective ways of leveraging technology in the creation of student groups and teams for remote, online, hybrid, or on-site learning environments.
