Self-led teams

As students become more experienced at working together online, some of the online facilitation roles can be handed over to the students. However the students will need advice and training in order to become successful collaborators.

Advice and training for self-led teams should include:

    * Establishing ground rules
    * Developing a shared sense of vision and purpose
    * Allocating roles, task and responsibilities
    * Communicating openly and frequently
    * Offering support
    * Meeting deadlines
    * Reviewing their performance and reflecting on contributions
