The Leonhard Center will a workshop titled present “Forming, Supporting, and Assessing Inclusive Teams using CATME” on November 7 from 12:00 to 1:30 p.m. in Stavely Conference Room (202 Hammond). Lunch will be provided.
This workshop will be a simulation of a “launch class” for student teams in a design course with a common project. The simulation will include discussion of key characteristics of effective teams based on research on teams and Google’s Project Aristotle, an overview of CATME assessments for teams and why they are important, and completion of a team launch activity. The five elements of effective teams that will be discussed are: Psychological Safety, Dependability, Structure and Clarity, Meaning, and Impact. The Team Launch Activity, based on the work of Richard Hackman and Ruth Wageman, is intended to begin to build respect, trust, and structure for the teams. Participants will complete a pre-workshop survey to provide information needed for the simulation, including an assessment of Team Psychological Safety in a recent team experience, preferences for team composition, and intrinsic interest in the course project. The last 30 minutes of the meeting will be used for discussion of the simulation and the materials used.
