All,

I am helping a professor here at UT implement TBL into a French literature class (12th-17th Centuries).

Does anyone have any ideas from experience on doing something similar?  Any ideas welcome!

So far, we have distilled the following instructional objectives for the course:

Knowledge/Comprehension:  
Demonstrate an understanding of the basic facts and principles relevant to this period in French literature.  
(Historical events, genre rules, philosophical trends, etc.)

Application/Analysis: 
Identify the author of a text, classify a text into its appropriate genre, and be able to justify your classification.
Identify the important elements of a complex text and how they relate to each other and the whole.

Synthesis/Evaluation:  
Explain a text (explication) in terms of rhetoric, logical flow, mythology.
