What did you do about the one who really hated TBL, wanted to be lectured at, thought that was what you were being paid to do – s/he was not there to learn by him/herself! Is that an issue of preparing students for the experience or just the fact that there will be some who just don’t get it, don’t like it, and want to be spoon fed – no matter what you do?

Thanks, Gail, I'm so glad you picked up on that. Two students actually mentioned this. I was thinking of a group share where a rep from each team forms a temporary group for research or TRAT then reports back to their permanent teams and have that rotate through each unit. It hasn't fully gelled so that's why I'm sharing with the group.

Nice journal assignment and prompt, Herb. Interesting student responses as well.

I was thinking about one of the comments....that the student didn't know others on the other side of the room.........

...

Since students have a large lab skill component, I often assign partners that are not team members....as students will perform skills on many different patients in the clinical setting.

"Arthur: It would have to be a 747.
Cobb: Why is that?
Arthur: Because on a 747 the pilot is up top, and the first

class cabin is in the nose, so no one would walk through. But you'd have

to buy out the entire cabin. And the first class flight attendant.

Saito: I bought the airline.....It seemed neater."
