Hello,

I just recently joined this listserve, so I don't know who makes up the 
members of this list.  Sorry if I repeat something you have already 
discussed.

I am a high school chemistry teacher.  Are most of you college professors? 

I will admit that I didn't know anything about TBL until last month when 
I saw a post on the chem-ed list by Richard Hake.  I was intrigued by 
the name "Team-based learning" so I immediately read the article in the 
NY Times.  I then purchased and read the book Team Based Learning, A 
Transformative Use of Small Groups in College Teaching.

Last night, however, I watched the TBL podcast listed on 
http://www.teambased.org/ and things really started to make sense.  If 
you are new to TBL and have any questions, I think you will find it very 
informative.

A few of my many questions:
1. Do you know of anyone using TBL at the high school level?
2. Is anyone here a chemistry teacher/professor?  I really need to see 
an in-class team activity.
3. I have many specific questions.  Should I "clutter" the list with 
them?  Or maybe I can talk with one person specifically.

Thanks for your time.
