I agree with Bruce. One of the aspects that I really enjoy in TBL is the friendly competition and banter between the teams. I have found that it encourages the less-adept students to engage and build their skill.



Hope that helps too.

Amina:

Two teams of four will facilitate team participation and provide you the opportunity to have some friendly competition between the two teams.  One team of eight will result in having to spend a long time in team deliberations to make sure everyone is heard.  Also, in a team of 8 it’s easier to “hide” and not participate.  I recommend 2 teams of 4 each.

Hope this helps.

Subject: Forming Teams





Colleagues,







I have a class this semester with a total of 8 students. I am contemplating whether to form two teams of 4 students or one team of 8 students? I've conducted the CatMe Team Builder survey, and based on the data collected I can go easily go either way. Does anyone have  experiences with either? What benefits and caveats are there for each scenario?







Thanks in advance for your help.





Best,
