“…Past research has shown the team signatory code is well received by students who find it useful in dealing with early stage social loafing (Bailey et al 2005) and to facilitate improved team performance (Hunsaker et al 2011;Cox & Bobrowski 2000). This is supported by a recent study by Harms (in press) who found that team learning behaviours positively affected group performance in an EE setting and proposed the delivery of team learning training in some form to students.…”

“…This is not disputed by the authors, and instead it is proposed that the use of the team signatory code has a dual purpose. It firstly attempts to allow students to evaluate and recognise their own value, instrumentality and expectancy within a team, thus helping to prevent social loafing as it has been seen to do in other contexts (Hunsaker et al 2011;Cox & Bobrowski 2000). However we propose a second benefit of the creation of the team signatory code.…”

“…The degree to which individual contributions are rewarded must be monitored carefully as it may be antithetical to the team spirit (Hunsaker et al 2011) (Gagne and Zuckerman, 1999) There is a stronger perceived contingency between individual effort and valued outcomes when working in a smaller group…”

“…Research has shown that efforts to define team processes and norms of behavior, including communication and interpersonal interactions, can help prevent conflict in many situations 14 . Establishing norms can also improve team efficacy, or the team's confidence in their ability to accomplish their goals, as well as their overall performance 15,16 .…”

“…Shared team mental models can be described as a mutual understanding of tasks, roles, responsibilities, and experiences that guide team behaviors 18 . An effective way to create shared mental models is to require project teams to think through these aspects together when creating their team contract 14,15 .…”

She has over seventeen years of experience in teaching a variety of engineering undergraduate students (freshman through senior) and has participated in several engineering education research projects, with a focus how faculty can best facilitate student learning. The ability to communicate and work effectively on a team has increased in importance in the field of engineering as the demands of business and industry have evolved 1 . Engineers today report that communication is critical to their success and spend a large percentage of time interacting with others 1 and working on teams 2 . Despite the need for interaction in practice, industry reports indicate engineering graduates show skill deficiencies in communication and teamwork 3 . Due to the importance of these skills, many encourage their integration into the engineering classroom, suggestin...
