I believe the answer is:

time-waster

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'something unproductive' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'teams write about' is the wordplay.
'about' is an anagram indicator.
'teams'+'write'='teamswrite'
'teamswrite' with letters rearranged gives 'TIME-WASTER'.

Can you help me to learn more?
