Many times, when we are working in teams, we will be asked to work with people who have different backgrounds. For this assignment, you will explore how diversity can benefit your team.
Instructions:
• Consider the following scenario:
o A local University, of which you and your classmates are “teachers”, is looking for ways to increase grade scores, and improve both graduation and retention rates. The President has come to you, the teachers, for your input. Go back to this course’s “Introduction” Discussion Board and reread the backgrounds of your fellow “teachers”. The goal is to become more aware of how diversity can benefit your team on this project.
• Please discuss the following:
o Seeing: Describe all the ways the members of our group are different from one another.
o Understanding: Discuss the significance of those differences. How have they affected the way you see yourself? The way you see the rest of the class? The way you see the world?
o Valuing: Discuss how all these differences can be a benefit to this project, and in general as you move forward.
