Program is available at http://2007.teambased.org/program.pdf Conference site at http://2007.teambased.org/ Several things about this year's conference are particularly exciting: We are continuing the tradition of excellence established by conferences on TBL in the health professions that go back half a decade. It is gratifying (though not surprising) to see TBL's popularity continue to grow. We are expanding to include more disciplines and methods. The health professions make a strong showing as usual this year, but we also welcome presenters who use TBL to teach writing, psychology, statistics, engineering, computer science, and more. We are exploring new tools, methods and even contexts for TBL. This year we'll see several new computer-based tools, methods many have used to "tweak" TBL to best fit their discipline, perspectives some have taken on the ever-thorny issue of peer-evaluations, and even thoughts about how TBL might be used to recruit students in the first place. Finally, we are honoring a core value of the TBL community. As a TBL practitioner, you are committed to helping your students learn more together than they ever could alone. That same commitment is what has driven us to make this a conference worthy of the time and energy of such a special group of people. Come join us in Vancouver, Canada on May 31 and June 1, 2007 Hope to see you there!
