Students participate in project teams to do hands-on work, to learn importantskills, and to find community and belonging with their peers. However, as in any team project, ifthe team dynamics are not positive, a student’s experience may be more detrimental thanbeneficial [1], [2]. Student project team situations may be at even higher risk for poor teamdynamics since they are often student-run and student-led; thus, they may lack the scaffolding ofa team project that generally exists in the classroom.
