I use TBL in two of my courses (economics) and have been quite pleased.
But, there is one thing I haven't really figured out how to incorporate --
current events. In these courses it is pretty important to read and
discuss events right as they occur, but how might I incorporate this into
TBL? If there is a story on tomorrow, I don't really want to wait until
the next RAP process; instead, I'd like to talk about it in the next
class. Plus, current topics rarely fit exactly into what we're currently
doing.
Ideas?
