Successful Collaboration

The focus of this project is the benefit of collaboration, building an environment of trust, and encouraging creative debate within a group.

 

Purpose: The purpose of this project is to introduce or review strategies for working in a collaborative group.

 

Overview: Work with a small team and collaborate to make decisions. Your goal is to apply the collaboration strategies you learned to a small-scale project, such as planning a club meeting. Deliver a 5- to 7-minute speech at a club meeting about your experience with the collaboration process. Your speech is not a report on the content of this project. This speech is about you, your learning, and your perceptions of the experience.
