The Role of Group Regulation in Student Groups: A Pedagogical Exploration
Harris, Garth; Bristow, Dennis
e-Journal of Business Education and Scholarship of Teaching, v10 n2 p47-59 2016
When tasked with group projects, students often struggle with teamwork and tend to overlook the importance of group self-regulation and its role in effective collaborative work. The pedagogy was implemented in semester long university level new product development courses. The pedagogy illustrates how educators can use student generated weekly reflective journals in semester long group projects to help students better understand the impact of group self-regulation on group communication, group monitoring and shared task perceptions amongst group members.
