Abstract

Monitoring task performance is crucial in team work in order to ensure equal participation of all team members.However, it may be difficult to implement due to team dynamism.One of the approaches that can be adopted when monitoring group work relies on measuring efficiency of each task performed by the team members.Thus, this paper aims to demonstrate application of Value Stream Mapping (VSM) technique in monitoring team performance in terms of group efficiency.VSM is a technique used to visualize process flow and improve process effectiveness.When applying VSM, the process commences with task prioritization, which is followed by transforming the tasks into a process flow chart, and culminates with analyzing the report using VSM.Empirical evidence indicates that, applied in this manner, the VSM technique provides a view of the team members’ efficiency in educational tasks.Thus, the outcome yielded can help students improve their performance in the next assignment.It also helps educators evaluate the level of difficulty of individual assignments and prepare intervention plans to improve their teaching methods.
