www.slayte.com Increasing Students’ Group Processing Ability in a First-Year Engineering Design Course Through Scaffolded Team Reflection ExercisesIntroductionFor engineering teams in particular, team function is vital to success both in and out of theclassroom. However, student teams often struggle to identify and address problems within thegroup. Student teams need additional assistance with group processing—the act of reviewingmembers’ actions that were helpful or detrimental to achieving team objectives and determiningwhich efforts to stop, start or continue [1]. Given the importance of group processing in ensuringeffective cooperative learning, educators must understand and deploy methods to encourage thedevelopment of this critical skill
