Hope everyone is having a good summer! As promised, here is my paper on "Stages, Traits, and Visions of Engagement: The College Teacher's Emotional Experience of Switching to Team-Based Learning." I am very grateful to all those on this list who helped, and I promised them I would share what I learned, so here it is. Of course, all names are pseudonymed. The one surprising finding for me was the apparent importance of having an overtly *experimental* mindframe--and the accompanying emotional stance--while implementing TBL. "Experiment" appeared in a few success stories and even appeared in a success story of a teacher who then went on to have a disastrous experience in a non "experimental" class. This information will certainly help guide my practice as a faculty developer. The rest of the findings in here should not be surprising to those on this list, comprised as it is of folks who have made the very switch this paper is about. CAVEAT: Please remember this is a paper for a class, not a conference or journal submission. I was limited to 15 pages and only one supporting quote per finding. I broke both rules, but even so, it is far "skinnier" and "squishier" than I would find satisfying if I were to read it in another context. I plan to continue this line of research and this paper may see the light of day a year or more from now in a totally different form. But I promised I would share it with the list "as is" and so here it is. -Michael Michael Sweet Division of Instructional Innovation and Assessment The University of Texas at Austin GSB 2.130 Mail Code: B8000 Austin, TX. 78712 http://www.utexas.edu/academic/diia/
