Members of the TBL Listserv:

Kathy McKnight recently joined the TBL listserv and has a question about using it in a Spanish literature class (see her email below).

Does anyone out there have experiences (or knowledge of anyone else) using TBL with a subject matter like this?

Dear Dee Fink,
 
I read and was inspired by your (and Michaelsen & Knight's) book this summer and am thinking about how to implement team-based learning in an Introduction to Hispanic Literature class (in Spanish). I haven't been able to find in your book, on your website or by Googling any traces of other teachers' work with this type of course (any kind of literature class). Do you have leads?
 
Thanks,
Kathy McKnight
