TEAM WORK

What is a team?

A team can be defined as a group of people interacting in order to gain or accomplish a common goal, which implies a distribution of tasks and convergence of efforts of team members. This definition highlights three key features that present a work team:

a common target: an ultimate goal, to achieve a final product;

an operation based on the means, tools and resources of each person and on a specific procedure to be followed;

Convergence efforts of each member: collaboration, when performing tasks that takes place in a healthy work environment and solidarity.

In my experience I was put in a team in my College and was asked to make a research project for the Final year. We were five students in a group and our clearance from College was dependent on the research Project.

The target and the common task

Achieving teamwork necessitates the identification of a target and a common task. The target is closer to ultimate goal by team members or put in other words, to "the end" pursued by the group. To identify the common target of a team, just ask what should be the final product together to achieve. What the team members. The target may be, for example, an Research report on the satisfaction level of teachers in respect of a teaching tool, a critique of educational software, a lesson plan English as a term of two hours at the graduate school, an audiovisual document, the implementation of a service to a particular clientele, etc..

The task, in turn, refers instead to how we should go about achieving the common target. Which means the team members and teammates will they use to achieve their purpose? In some cases, more resources, instruments or tools available, and several procedures, methods, or techniques will prove effective; contexts appear more relevant. In other cases, several steps will be to cross, in what order are they performed? Who will do what?

Sometimes, of course, the achievement of a school team, or that the teacher in charge of the course requires certain items related to the target or to the common task of the team. A teacher or professor may, for example, impose a theme, a specific context or use of a technique or a special tool. Regardless of the details he or she brings and the restrictions he or she requires, in all cases remain choices to make. Achieving a team still requires that members agree on target and on task. In other words, there must be consensus within the team on what, specifically, the target and the common task. Before commencing work, the team must absolutely take the time to review and clarify the perception that each member of the team of the target and the common task.
