This is particularly impacted by the team dynamics. Onesuggested answer to this pedagogical dilemma is for educators to have a clear idea on how to formteams that are more effective.This research addresses the following questions: What team formation method(s) has proven to besuccessful? Can identifying student learning styles be an effective means of forming balanced teams?This study investigated various methods typically used by educators to form teams. Examples of thesewould be random, self-selection, GPA, learning skills, and hybrids of these.During the first year of this study, the
