To examine teamwork as a teaching method, an evaluation of student grades indicatedthat team-based activities did not equally benefit all students, with lower performing studentsreceiving a larger grade benefit. In similar fashion, group learning exercises did not significantlyimprove student learning for subsequently administered individual exams. When studentlearning related to team selection
