HPE | Teamwork

Teamwork is a term to describe a group of people working together to achieve a goal.

Teamwork consists of three main mechanisms. Communication is talking to one another. In a game of dodgeball, people communicate by telling each to pass the ball. An example is: communicating to each other on how they are going to block thier king.

Cooperation is an action where people work together at the same end. In a game of dodgeball, people cooperate is by eliminating teams to get to the same end. An example is: cooperating with each other by eliminating opponants with balls.

Collaboration is working in a group to try and achieve a goal. In a game of dodgeball, people work together by dodging the ball. An example is: colaborating by defending thier king, so thier team won't lose.

To be successful as a team all three mechanisms need to implemented throughout the activity.
