Making Groupwork Work: University of Bradford University of Leeds Supporting student groupwork through multimedia and web learnhigher.ac.uk/groupwork/ Presented by Peter Hartley & Carol Elston

The problem of groups: why worry? Student groups in UK HE – the current context: o increasing use of group projects (alongside decreasing staff support) o groups now used in all subject areas o pressures to develop ‘key skills’/’soft skills’ and employability o pressures to ‘reflect’

Key features of the resource o Flexible for both staff and students o Encourage students to inquire into group process o Must not offer ‘one best way’ o Must have potential for further expansion and development

Key design points o Web delivery o Structured around ‘episodes’ o ‘Believable’ video clips o Different perspectives for analysis/discussion o Flexibility for staff and students o Ability to add further links/resources

Group work Timeline: Example Episodes The first meeting How do we get started? Do we need a leader? Rob isn’t committed How do we behave on presentation day?

Structure of the final product Overview The ‘descriptive’ screen o Video of the group in action o Background info and discussion points The ‘analysis’ screen o Alternative or additional video o Analysis of interaction o Hints and tips o Links to further resources
