The instructor used a teaching method advocated byMichaelsen. 10 To align with Michaelsen’s method, the instructor created 30 minute designproblems and a few longer-term projects that required students to use both design and teamworkskills to reach a solution. Each week the teams were to solve the assigned problem as a group inclass and report their solution to the class verbally and on a large sheet of paper. Student workwas begun and completed within class.The instructor video recorded approximately 30 minutes of team interaction each week duringclass. A different team was randomly chosen each week.
