I am new to TBL so I don’t have any experience to build on but I have used this assignment as an individual task in my lectures with very good results. Students are pretty good at creating MCQ (individually), particularly when they know that some of them might show up on the actual exam. You really don’t need a team for this.

 

I would think that it is still OK for dyads/pairs but not for a team of 5-9 people because it is too easy to get disengaged.

Subject: phase 3 teams creating MCQ

 

Has anyone used phase 3 as a time for teams to create MCQ? This is a higher order thinking skill and a form of application of the content, but is it something that would be successful produced as a 'team assignment'? Would individuals work to accomplish the task?
