MAILING LISTS

I just received end of semester student evaluations for fall 2010 semester.  Some students did not "buy into" the TBL theory of teaching.
I did my best to explain the justification for using TBL during the first week of class.

More specifically, I used

1.)    the process described in the attached document
First-Day Questions for the Learner-Centered Classroom
by Gary A. Smith  (National Teaching and Learning Forum, Sept. 2008)


and





2.)    the  video from U. of Texas  (http://magenta.cit.utexas.edu/largeclasses/#tbl<http://magenta.cit.utexas.edu/largeclasses/%23tbl>)   .

Still, some students think they should be lectured to every class and, also, think they are being short- changed by a professor that uses TBL.
I have interacted with Larry Michaelsen over the years and have watched the videos at
             http://tblc.camp9.org/TBLVideos
Please advise me of things besides the above that will make students better "buy into" the TBL process.

Thanks in advance.
