Hello,
I just recently joined this listserve, so I don't know who makes up the
members of this list. Sorry if I repeat something you have already
discussed.
I am a high school chemistry teacher. Are most of you college professors?
I will admit that I didn't know anything about TBL until last month when
I saw a post on the chem-ed list by Richard Hake. I was intrigued by
the name "Team-based learning" so I immediately read the article in the
NY Times. I then purchased and read the book Team Based Learning, A
Transformative Use of Small Groups in College Teaching.
Last night, however, I watched the TBL podcast listed on
http://www.teambased.org/ and things really started to make sense. If
you are new to TBL and have any questions, I think you will find it very
informative.
A few of my many questions:
1. Do you know of anyone using TBL at the high school level?
2. Is anyone here a chemistry teacher/professor? I really need to see
an in-class team activity.
3. I have many specific questions. Should I "clutter" the list with
them? Or maybe I can talk with one person specifically.
Thanks for your time.
