Furthermore, this study explores how participants of diversified professional backgrounds work as a team to accomplish the work. To understand what and how team members contribute toward the project, the researcher uses qualitative research methods to collect data by observing their self-identity, relationships, cooperating engagement and the interaction behaviors. The subjects of this study include the participants of a training program of medical animations under a project supported by the National Science Council. They are divided into groups, and asked to make medical animation. Their self-evaluation on related skills, expectation and attitude toward their groups, social interaction, and completed products are recorded and analyzed during the process of developing medical e-learning materials. Among about 40 medical and media trainees from all over the country, 13 are selected to attend this study. The study adopts qualitative methods such as natural observations and in-depth interviews to explore participants' self-evaluations on their skills, attitudes, within-group interaction, difficulties, and completed products. In addition, descriptive statistics are used in analyzing quantitative data. The results show that different there were various differences in professional backgrounds. The team development and the outcome of the teaching material respectively caused different effects. Characters in different medical background and professional multimedia designers are more successful. In this kind of group, group members have more diverse roles. Each of them take their own advantages to work together. On the contrary, combination of people from medical backgrounds and biological backgrounds are less successful. They were not able to control the schedule of teaching material development. Members in the group are not harmonious; therefore, they met more difficulties in teaching material development. Moreover, other factors such as assistance and attitude from SME, leader styles, coherence and goal of the team, ability of multimedia programming as well as personal inner motivation are also key factors to affect team development.
