In this vignette, the Team Member was to express concerns about calculation results, and the Team Leader was to respond in a such a way as to promote psychological safety. During the debrief for each vignette, the Observers led the discussion by sharing what they saw that promoted psychological safety and what they saw that hindered or removed it.Methods: This project was predicated on the research question: Does teaching psychological safety improve teaming experiences for first-year students? We hypothesized that we could improve students’ team interactions by directly

A multi-disciplinary team was assembled, traveled toMarwa in May 2016, and established the foundation that would evolve into a multi-year, multi-phase community development project: Maji Marwa. The Maji Marwa project was introduced to students as a capstone project option in theundergraduate civil engineering program and has expanded to collaboration amongst twouniversities, five colleges and participation from over 175 students.

Whilelectures and readings may provide teams with basic tools for team and project management,these correlate team success with the creation of a high-quality final design [14]. Such tools mayinadvertently cue students to distribute work according to stereotypical social roles in the beliefthat by having team members “play to their strengths,” they are doing what is best for the team[15].
