Morphology
The meaning is directly and transparently derived from combining 'team' (a group of people working toward a goal) with 'collaboration' (joint effort), so a learner who knows both words can infer it means collaborative work by a team. This compositional pattern is common across languages and follows basic noun-noun modification, making it immediately comprehensible to a B1 learner.
Etymology
Team collaboration combines the words team meaning people together and collaboration meaning working with each other, so imagine a group passing bricks or rowing in time so the work moves forward. So, team collaboration means 'working together as a group to reach the same goal'.
