These activities included asking questions (48%), answering questions posed by the instructor(38%), and participating in whole-class discussions (31%). These interactive activities demonstratedthat students actively articulated their understanding and clarified concepts from the provided re-sources. Cognitive engagement is further supported by substantial involvement in thinking (50%) andpredicting animation (50%). Although listening (62%) accounted for the largest portion of students’activity, the focus on discussion and analysis highlights the instructor’s effort to promote active learn-ing.

multidisciplinary (e.g.,structural engineer working with an economist) (Tomek 2011), diversity can also arise due tovariation in ages in the team setting, which has also significantly increased in recent years(Kearney & Gerbert, 2009). The issue of generational differences as they apply to teams isbecoming a common phenomenon in many industries ranging from healthcare to education,engineering, corporate, and academia (Burton 2019; Almeida 2021). Contrasting ideas/viewsowing to age differences can hinder progress, but when used creatively, these differences canpositively affect team performance (Tomek 2011).

Also, the researchconsiders that the teams are working cooperatively rather than collaboratively and thiscooperation is implemented via articulation work, meaning that the developers had additionaltasks to ensure that the user-experience design is accomplished.
