Jim:

Being able to "brand it" (yet, with appropriate citation of its source) 
would be great!

Thanks.

Hi

When I am asked do anything less then a couple of hours....the goal simply 
becomes getting people excited enough to read more later

With only 25 minutes....hmmm....how about introducing tbl and its 
pieces.....showing the new UTAustin video.....then getting folks to work 
in teams on "why do you think tbl might be so 
powerful."......debrief...point to next steps, resources, extraordinary 
community support :-)

this is so short that creating enthusiasm might be the best objective

My two cents

At an upcoming teaching showcase (www.upei.ca/aaushowcase <
http://www.upei.ca/aaushowcase> ) a colleague and I are doing a 25-minute 
presentation. We are going to use a Pecha Kucha presentation for the 4 
primary principles aspect (that should take about 6 minutes). The sessions 
are intended to be participatory and that will be our main goal. I’m 
wondering if anyone might have ideas to share about having the 
participants ‘live’ the experience of team formation, readiness assurance 
process, and an application activity in such a very tight timeframe? It is 
a fairly small conference (typically around  120 attendees) so I wouldn’t 
suspect that we will have >20 participants in our session. I’ve copied the 
abstract below so that you can get a sense of the plan. All ideas welcome. 



Shift happens! Transitioning to Team-Based Learning 

In a unique initiative, an interprofessional educator team representing a 
university and a community college planned, facilitated and assessed an 
interprofessional learning experience designed to develop and/or expand 
the learners’ professional communication skills. Challenging a traditional 
teaching/learning paradigm, the facilitator team adopted the principles 
and practices of Team-Based Learning (TBL) as the instructional strategy 
for the course. Making such a shift requires role changes for both course 
facilitators and learners – changes that intentionally lead to increased 
student engagement and student learning. In this session, the presenters 
will briefly discuss the four essential principles of TBL; teams, 
accountability, feedback and assignment design. Participants will have the 
opportunity to ‘live’ the experience of Team Formation, Readiness 
Assurance Process, and Application Activity. Using a TBL scorecard 
developed by Larry Michealsen and Jim Sibley (2009) as a guide, the 
presenters will enter into a discussion with the participants about 
turning groups to high performance teams and the benefits of using TBL, 
irrespective of class size.
