SI Happy Hour! (with Sarah Leupen) Team-Based Learning: Group Work that Works

Description

Team-Based Learning (TBL) is a learning strategy in which most of the work of the class is done in structured, permanent learning teams. Like other flipped-classroom methods (though TBL was invented long before the term “flipped classroom), the students’ first exposure to course content is outside of class, as students read the assigned material and are tested on their preparation, individually and as a team. In class, students apply the course content by working increasingly complex, real-world team application problems, usually those in which they have to make a decision. The amazing result is that students spend the class period vigorously discussing the concepts of your class! This session will explore the hows and whys of TBL and help participants get an idea of its potential for use in their own courses.
