Providing Assessment Model to Diminish Free Rider and Enhance Students’ Cooperative Skills

Abstract

This study aims to propose a concept innovation model: EDDPEA (Envision, Design, Develop, Presentation, Enhance, Assessment) as an attempt to diminish the free-rider issue and raise university students’ collaborative skills. The study involved a research development approach using the ADDIE (Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement, and Evaluate) model to develop an innovative learning model for university students. This approach was adopted to develop a product that is effectively involved in learning. In this research, we employed questionnaires in measuring the validity, practicality, and effectiveness. The findings of this study indicate that the EDDPEA follows six stages, including envision, design, develop, present, enhance, and assessment. Each stage can involve students’ attention to a particular given topic. Additionally, this innovative learning model can be used for entrepreneurship subjects as attempting to diminish the free-rider issue in a workgroup and it can be elaborated with other relevant subjects. This paper will provide a prior understanding on how to diminish free-rider issue in work group learning.
