>> Subject: Re: Team formation for 2nd year medical students
>> 
>> I was about to ask a similar question about teams when I saw this discussion. We have just finished the first year of using TBL as part of a new curriculum at our medical school. We kept teams together throughout the first year and also used the same teams to work on "case of the week" .  I assumed we would change teams for their second year when a questionnaire was sent to the students asking them if they would like to stay in the same groups for their second year. About 85% said they would like to stay on the same team; this averages 1 person per team that would like to change. ( A couple teams had 2 people that want to change others had none.)
>> 
>> The faculty is now trying to decide what to do with this information. The options suggested have been to keep the same teams, form new teams or just move the students who want to change teams.
>> 
>> I would appreciate any further comments or suggestions on this matter. (I will keep my opinion to myself as not to bias the comments.)

I do this simply:  every student's name is on either a pink or blue piece of paper with their 1st year team number; we distribute the colors so every team has gender balance, then the president makes sure no 'known couples' are together.  That's it.  The students are told how we do it, can watch a little video clip of the process if they don't believe me.
>> 
>> At the end of every first year, students beg to stay with their teams - even those who had some 'rough spots' with team members early on.  It is absolutely amazing to watch how quickly the new teams in the second year get to work and how well they do it.  I ask them for the first few weeks how it is going.  They say they miss their old team, but, love working with the new set and do notice that getting started a second time is much easier.

Now these students will be entering their second year of our preclinical curriculum in which TBL will also be used extensively. Is it recommended that different teams be formed compared to their 1st year? If so, what criteria should be used to form the teams for the second year? We used the following criteria to sort teams for their first year of TBL:
>> 
>> 1)    Greater than two years of full time clinical experience
>> 2)    One to two years of full time clinical experience
>> 3)    Advanced degree (masters or PhD) in a biomedical field
>> 4)    Have taken a cadaveric dissection anatomy course
>> 5)    Played a team sport in college
>> 6)    Played a team sport in high school
>> 7)    Like to learn by reading textbooks

>> If we use the same criteria for their second year this presumably would lead to more or less the same teams.
