We have developed a set of visualisations mirroring the activity of small teams engaged in a task. These provide a bird-eye view of what is happening in a small team, giving insights into the way that each individual is contributing to the group and the ways that team members interact with each other. We report on our first experience of using these visualisations for a semester-long software development project course. The study revealed that students, especially those with leadership roles, found the visualizations informative and helpful and that over a third of students modified their behaviour accordingly.
