Lisa,
I don't know that I've ever had the problem you describe. I suspect that you may have missed an important practice that has the effect of preventing this type of situation. I would add three other questions to those posed by Ruth.
1) Are you using the IF-AT answer sheets for your tRATs?
2) What kinds of team application activities have you had them do (i.e., Do they follow the 4 S's?
3) What kind of peer evaluation instrument are you using... specifically does it have any sort of "forced-choice" (vs. a rating scale on which peers have the option of weighting everyone high--or low)?

I am new to using TBL and I have a problem I need some help with. I have one team that has an individual who is assigning very low numbers to 4 out of 5 of the team members he/she is evaluating. One member of the team has not participated during the last two classes b/c he was rated as not being open to others' ideas and got a qualatitative comment that he is too vocal and doesn't give others a chance. This student was also rated as not being prepared. I know that the student is prepared and that he is vocal but I know that he does work well with the team. The rater has also rated 3 other members of the team with low scores. Do I step in and talk to the one student? Do I let the students work it out? Do I advise the student in how to approach his team about the problem? I initially decided to let it work itself out but then the one student came to ask my advice and to tell me his is uncomfortable with participating in his group now. They are ready to evalute each other for the 3rd time and are half way through the semester. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
