representative explained want hear guy somewhat dispiriting changed practice asked student form small discussion group lecture research data suggests may hasty giving approach one student said broke smaller group much comfortable like know people group fine comfortable le formal kind atmosphere able exchange everyone kind feel like equal another commented good group discussion really good got develop idea get know people take reading co sometimes read something go understand talk go oh yeah get response small group mixed student overwhelmingly enthusiastic class debate discussion two linked theme emerged first format made class le daunting yeah le intimidating especially sort core paper like land equity huge lecture theatre never want raise hand lecture minority actually talk make feel really dumb like know enough subject culture lecture structured actually felt like even participate like everyone else dumber yeah really good second format encouraged participation like contribute class generally felt like sort given mandate already interruptive flow structured way seem like interrupting lecturer asked question made statement others said definitely involved like asked couple question class normally course lot interactive think team teaching made feel le formal class one person focus lecturer interacting encouraging everyone else interact lot le know authoritarian like normal law class find like go sit family law whatever kind people say thing time youth justice way teach feel lot relaxed le formal think encourages lot people speak people hearing time student also appreciated opportunity hear different perspective topic discussed guess coming different background give different perspective obviously scottish versus new zealand different perspective student specifically mentioned based solely ethnicity jurisdiction good raised different point well also like lot people coming different like ethnic background quite good see point view khylee alison also view obviously khylee maori background alison scottish uk kind view yeah quite good alison definitely giving sort scottish european perspective speciality khylee probably complement quite well really khylee kiwi girl really full kiwi perspective approach surprising student identified perspective easily different accent discussion practice different jurisdiction would reinforced throughout disappointed reference different theoretical perspective tried present student specifically asked whether thought team teaching format would work appropriate law school subject majority student answered question clear approach would work compulsory paper 69 several said course content statute based use approach contract company tax law mentioned particularly problematic literature noted student could anxious presented differing view student seemed comfortable fact several questionnaire comment suggested student would liked u argue interestingly linked positive reaction perception got well together one student said question whether team teaching work others know khylee alison close socialise outside uni quite good friend would say whether would work maybe team lecturer friend outside maybe would power struggle something 3 effect team teaching student learningstudents asked whether teaching method helped learning way also asked whether format helped challenge view view reading pleased student took time answer question detail student identified several effect teaching holding interest providing coherence subject enabling challenge academic view providing different perspective clearest effect team teaching held student interest better single lecturer would ask u lot question lecture good talk thing find much better way learning lectured two hour really good student comment suggested effect entertain necessarily suggest deeper learning personally really like like really like style teaching able hold interest lot longer one lecturer co sometimes one lecturer hard listen seem work really well together able bounce one another student equated personality way worked together level interest know mean like like two teacher want room guy actually wanted learn learn made really enjoyable made understandable yeah really good different practice experience often commented positively think one thing really help learning process people thing people really appreciate anecdote story especially people practised two lecturer twice wealth experience anecdote think quite valuable make paper enjoyable student often contrasted teaching block teaching compulsory subject felt team approach gave consistency coherence way subject taught much prefer way teaching rather people coming stint leaving lot reason harder try see link section people another said like different lecturer thing make sometimes hard got try merge different concept like two lecturer contract would different think working like lecturer room time know going work better people coming like two three week kind thing result suggested method least partially successful enabling student challenge academic view heard u encountered reading occasionally disagree easy feel comfortable holding conflicting view comment questionnaire reinforce analysis particularly aided two lecturer give view interesting see agree encouraging comment presentation one view encouraged work formulating rather absorbing taught noted discussion response team teaching student identified useful different perspective presented find quite good two different kind opinion happening class help u help sort look thing different angle approach issue yeah find quite helpful hm plus make really clear agree point blah blah blah comment think really good get better discussion going get perspective going one think good different view show area unclear controversial suggest method allowed exploration different viewpoint result inquiry suggested team teaching approach engaged student effectively longer helped identify challenge different perspective indicate deep learning decided use team teaching approach partly persuaded traditional teaching approach law school encouraged surface learning marton säljö research different outcome learning described student approach study surface learning deep learning 70 contrast surface learning student tried rote learn material reproduce later deep learning involved student search meaning order understand material marton säljö showed deep learning associated student work qualitatively better work produced surface learning 71 introduced new elective new teaching approach simultaneously therefore control group student experienced youth justice taught traditional way meant could compare work produced approach instead two potential source data deep learning examined transcript indication student constructing meaning reading hearing analysed questionnaire answer student thought approach affected learning student comment focus group suggest beginning construct understanding material approaching issue different angle got thinking understand everything come perspective background student seemed approaching material questioning analytical way result way presented issue student completed questionnaire section team teaching affected learning none said approach negative effect learning student simply stated better helped without explanation however several indication deep learning could occurring made think issue class discussion good showing way looking thing found particularly encouraging student beginning think learned deep learning involve student monitoring developing understanding 72 deliberately held focus group semester end course explore whether student view team teaching changed time change view team teaching since student previously experienced approach however student referred way learning raised different point well also like lot people coming different like ethnic background quite good see point view lot say normally even enter head took note class lot information shared yeah always kind two view something several positive theme emerged student response concluded indication deep learning beginning take place student however one fascinating exchange focus group reproduced full reminded u matter much effort put creating condition deep learning may occur student choose use opportunity researcherso negative impact sort mode team teaching learning course participant 1it like kind felt like oh gosh going go debate end seemed bit endless limitless researcherokayparticipant 3it might depend approach class though think people approach really wanting understand issue youth justice really helpful engaging think probably approached want 10 point probably approach university get degree education participant 1which necessarily way frustrating kind feel like right answer put exam participant 3this course probably flagged one right answer long established case law massive tome written think respect actually quite refreshing could frustrating participant 1for 10 point participant 3for mark yeah ironically although student asked identify negative impact team teaching response suggested positive effect student learning reference endless limitless pleased u sounded though really managed open topic present complexity loved suggestion course flagged one provide right answer considering inclusion following course book warning course requires think enrolment may severely sharpen intellect iv conclusion future considerationsour initial decision team teach arose desire present student comprehensive view subject could result inquiry suggest succeeded presenting student different perspective encouraging least explore others assumption view material challenge fact always two lecturer class demonstrably different background experience interacting student together reinforced broader contextual approach hoped student would adopt also say confidence use model team teaching increase student engagement lecture time two teacher hold student attention better one longer participation class discussion debate high level compared student experience course

given student class time fact student felt course presented coherently block taught course commented coherence helped learn confirmed u managed avoid danger confusion turned dual input advantage student one benefit emerge inquiry creation le intimidating lecture environment appeared given student confidence challenge others opinion issue discussion taking different perspective presented student might hope deep learning began occur evidence would sought looking student written work evidence state categorically student learning improved use team teaching say engagement lecture time increased created environment high quality learning might occurred however one measure deep learning confidence ability analyse synthesise student negative reaction small group work must considered see increase student appreciation discussing material peer would produce valuable material improve learning perhaps necessary confidence small group discussion need develop time may given easily student request stop using small group perhaps persisted group evidence value would changed student attitude towards future intend reinstate small group work spend time explaining student think work
