We are embarking on using TBL in a number of our second-year preclinical courses, and I am interested in knowing the criteria used by others to form teams in such classes. Some criteria are fairly straightforward, while others are not. In particular, how does anyone "get at" previous academic achievement without embarrassing low-achieving students. I suppose one could "preselect" using their transcripts, but that would compromise transparency.

In addition to using (or not using) academic achievement, what other criteria do any of you use? Thanks much.
