Group work in higher education presents a unique opportunity for students to develop collaborative learning skills, such as teamwork, trust, and communication. However, assessing collaborative learning in a group work context remains a challenge that is contingent upon the learning context, the learning goals, and the learners themselves. This workshop will present a review of literature on pedagogical theories, practices, and strategies for assessing collaborative learning in group work. As collaborative learning in groups is highly contextual and discipline specific, the session will invite participants to reflect on the theories and assessment strategies presented and whether there is utility in these approaches to their teaching and learning context.
In-person option: November 17, 1pm-2pm
