Creating Better Teams

With Matchmaking Technology

Team formation is crucial for effective teamwork. If students form their own teams, they typically end up working with their friends, This leads to to highly homogenous teams (all the international students, all girls-teams, etc), uneven distribution of teams (very strong vs very weak teams), limited intergroup networking and a frustrating experience for less integrated students. This impacts negatively on academic performance and development of interpersonal skills.

Finally a scientific method for creating balanced teams!
