This is a quick little worksheet for learners to find out how they work in a team environment. Learners grade each role as to whether it sounds like them or not, and the highest scoring role is their role. They can then use this information to develop their team working skills. It also allows learners to evaluate if they have leadership qualities, initiative, and communication and negotiation skills which can then be developed further using other activities and assessment. This can also demonstrate how different types of people can work well as a team, and that everyone works in different ways and have different strengths to contribute.
I work with trade students so discussing the Considerate Constructors Scheme is important so that they know what is expected of behaviour and attitude on a construction site, which is similar to what we expect at college.
