描述: Problem. Cooperative learning is attempted by placing students in group learning situations in which they receive assignments without a structured group or team-formation process. This study evaluated the effectiveness of the Bcube™ process with college students as a method of bringing together individuals of varied backgrounds to form cooperative-learning teams. In addition, the affect of the Bcube™ process on a particular learning outcome was also examined. Method. Sixty-three Andrews University students (undergraduate and graduate) were divided into treatment and control groups. After a pretest was administered, the treatment group was given the Bcube™ process which is a method of team formation that can be used to support cooperative learning strategies. Then all groups were given a learning task followed by a posttest. The Group Styles Inventory and the Group Development Questionnaire collected information from the 11 groups. Three-way analysis of covariance, three-way analysis of variance, t tests, Mann-Whitney, and Kruskal-Wallace tests were used to analyze the influence of the Bcube™ process along with gender and ethnicity on the five treatment groups. Results. The control group scored higher than the treatment group on the posttest of the learning module. The treatment group perceived themselves more effective than the control group. The treatment group used a higher level of constructive group styles than the control group. The treatment group was observed displaying more traits of an effective group. Conclusions. The control group used a centralized communication pattern to outperform the treatment group on the learning module. This supports previous research findings that simple task completion uses individual or centralized communication patterns whereas complex tasks lend themselves to a decentralized pattern. The treatment group perceived that their group worked together effectively to generate better solutions than they could individually,
