Team based learning based on the transformation of permanent student groups into powerful learning teams is widely and successfully used as an instructional strategy in postsecondary career and technical education. Failure of groups to reach the learning team status is a major learning drawback of this approach. Factors affecting the transformation of groups to teams are applied consistently to the whole class, with the exception of group formation and membership. Career and technical education populations differ from other postsecondary populations and examination of group formation factors may result in improvement of student results.Abstract / Introduction / Problem Statement / Purpose of Study / Literature Review / Method / Results / Conclusion / References / Appendix 1 - Consent Form / Appendix 2 Student Questionnaire - Group Selection / Appendix 3 Student Response Dat
