MAILING LISTS

Hi folks,

A journalist from the news section of the journal Nature contacted me
yesterday to get material for a feature story he's writing for the July
16th issue on the challenges of implementing active learning in
undergraduate STEM courses. Because I've had such terrific institutional
support, as well as a great new active-learning classroom, and therefore
had relatively few challenges, he asked me if there was anyone I knew from
other institutions who has had more difficulties implementing active
learning changes.

His piece is not about TBL per se., but I thought this list would be a good
resource, and perhaps we can even end up highlighting TBL as an
active-learning strategy that can be implemented successfully in a variety
of situations, or despite challenges (but I think he also wants to hear
about failures!).

If you're interested in talking to him about your experiences, just send me
an email at [log in to unmask] and I will give him your contact information.

Thank you!
