Development of teamwork skills during group training

In recent years, there has been a growing recognition of the importance of assessing team competence of university graduates. Therefore, the need to develop and cultivate teamwork skills among university students is currently widely discussed. One of the main ways to enhance practical teamwork skills is through group learning, which was widely used in the USSR in the first half of the 20th century. The relevance of the research is driven by the need for optimal selection of group learning methodologies and their integration into the educational process to develop the necessary skills. The aim of this work is to investigate the characteristics of group learning in higher education institutions and to identify ways to enhance its effectiveness in the educational process as a technology for developing teamwork skills. The methodological basis of the research is the analysis of scientific publications and a generalized practical experience of using group learning in universities. The article shows that group learning is an effective form of the educational process that promotes the development of social and communicative skills for teamwork, as well as deepening knowledge acquired through traditional learning. The study analyzes learning in individual groups as well as in educational disciplines and courses, which has previously been insufficiently researched. Possible ways to enhance the effectiveness of group learning in the educational process are proposed. The novelty lies in drawing attention to the necessity of differentiating disciplines based on the appropriateness of applying the group approach during their study and prioritizing the development of teamwork skills in those disciplines where the use of group learning methods is more natural and justified.
