A Team Task requires learners to work together, build consensus and create a shared body of work. Some good examples of suitable tasks include working through a problem, example or case study, contributing to a document or shared response, or creating a list of resources, papers and literature. These kinds of tasks can work as asynchronous and synchronous tasks and are helpful for low-stakes work and getting learners used to learning in a social context. These tasks must be scaffolded and provide learners with clear instructions and roles, especially when introduced to learners. If these tasks are used consistently throughout a course or program, you can reduce these explicit instructions as learners become used to this way of working and self-organising. It is important to note that regardless of the level of study, you should treat each group of learners as novices when it comes to this kind of task. Knowledge and teamwork experiences apply to specific groups; what works in one group may not transfer to another.
