摘要：Effective teamwork is integral to the functioning of many professions. Employers desirework-ready graduates who have developed the so-called ‘soft skills’ involved inteamwork. One way for students to practise and gain feedback on their team skills isthrough team-based assessment tasks. The TeamUP Rubric was developed to teach andassess five domains of teamwork skills through peer feedback. Initial evaluation of thefive domains and use of the TeamUP with health and arts students has provided initialsupport for its utility as a measure of teamwork. In the current study the scale structureof each of the five domains was evaluated using Mokken scale analysis (MSA). MSA is anon-parametric item response theory approach that evaluates the internal structure of anevaluation tool. One-hundred and seventy-seven primary education students wererecruited for the study. All participants were undertaking a teamwork assignment in aunit of study in their education degree at an Australian regional university. Theycompleted the TeamUP Rubric assessment for themselves and for each of the studentsin their team. Each TeamUP domain met the requirements for a Mokken scale. Thecurrent study supports the validity of the scores derived from the TeamUP Rubric andfurther supports its use as a tool for teaching and assessing teamwork.
