This semester is my first attempt at TBL, and I just had my first RAP with my class, Human Rights and Justice. It went great, and I am looking forward to see how this semester progresses. One thing that I noticed was that some teams were a lot faster than the other. The fastest team completed the tRAT first, and had nothing to appeal because they got everything right (it was very easy). The slowest team took the longest time taking the tRAT, and then had a lot it could potentially appeal. So the fastest teams had some 15 minutes of waiting time while other teams were doing appeals. Since it was the first RAP I encouraged them to use this time to get to know each other better, but I was wondering if anyone has something productive the fastest teams can do in this time.
