Even so, we were inspired enough to make our own presentation. Ourintroduction to engineering course is divided into a portion that is team-based, a weekly lecture,and a portion that is conducted in a more traditional laboratory-and-recitation format. Thecourse’s instructional team itself is team-based, which means we value the power of teams at thesame time that we incorporate ideas from a wide range of sources. It seemed to us that even aneffort that was not supported by an educational theater group would be beneficial to initiating aconversation about teamwork.A. Literature ReviewAlthough much of the
