Over the last five years, learning in higher education has shifted. As the unique needs of students continue to evolve, so must our teaching and assessment methods. This research talk will explore the implementation of team-based assessments in a sport, performance, and exercise psychology course. The audience will learn about how the team-based assessments are structured for this course as well as student perceptions of this implementation. There will also be discussion surrounding how the instructor uses these team-based assessments as part of a practical application in this course (e.g., team cohesion, communication, building confidence, etc.). This project is part of University of South Alabama’s Scholarship of Teaching and Learning Fellowship Program, and thus, implications for teaching and learning outcomes will be discussed.
