| Abstract | The project team has become a primary learning environment for engineering students. Engineering education accreditation 1 has been revised to include the ability to function on multidisciplinary teams as a required student learning outcome in response to industry identification of shortcomings in team skills 2 . Unlike other science, technology, and mathematics disciplines, graduates of engineering programs typically enter a work environment that immediately requires team and interpersonal process skills. From the perspective of education, positive team project experiences can motivate students to perform at higher levels. Well-functioning teams have been shown to improve learning and retention in non-engineering fields, especially for members of underrepresented groups 3,4,5,6,7 . |
