Group work: Towards equitable online and in-person teams
Irena Acic and Hannah Stevens
Description
Purdue’s CATME Team-Maker is an online assessment tool that instructors can use to assemble more equitable student groups for group work. Instructors can identify what demographics and/or characteristics they want to use to assemble teams (e.g., software skills, GPA, gender, etc.) and CATME sorts students accordingly. While this tool is useful for both in-person and remote learning, it is especially useful when working with students who live in different time zones.
