Conflict Resolution in Team Teaching: A Case Study in Interdisciplinary Teaching
Shapiro, Elayne J.; Dempsey, Carol J.
College Teaching, v56 n3 p157-162 Sum 2008
The authors discuss the challenges of creating an integrated, interdisciplinary team-taught course. This case study focuses on conflict arising from interdependency, when interdisciplinary teams determine course content and negotiate identity, relationship, and process issues. Although no formulaic solutions can resolve such conflicts, the study makes suggestions that can help achieve integration and collaboration when disciplines join forces. (Contains 1 note.)
