Collaboration and teamwork are essential for solving complex, real-world problems and are therefore in high demand by employers. Yet students rarely have the opportunity to study and apply the theory and best practices for making collaboration work. In this course, you will learn how to leverage this research to acquire a variety of important skills. These include: effective communication in groups, proactively managing group conflict, identifying biases that hinder creativity, and leveraging diversity to improve outcomes. You will also put those skills into practice throughout the course and reflect on how you can apply them in other situations.

Although it is helpful, Rob is a very harsh marker. Cannot please him with anything you write.

Hands down the best bird course for engineers. No exams, pass/fail assignments, group work, and only 2 reflections for submission. Class was easy and I got caught up on other homework. Take this if you want to get a high mark in a CSE.
