New ways to evaluate learning. Assessing teamwork using TPM and a Poka-Yoke design

Abstract

In this paper we present a hands-on experiment for measuring learning through teamwork applied to solving a real problem. Once the exercise is assigned, the teamwork is verified to be measured efficiently, even when the number of students is high. The physical design of the elements, as well as the simultaneous engagement by all the students in the exercise, served to considerably raise the motivation of the students.
