Dear all,

My colleagues and I just got an acceptance on an article on the the impact
of TBL on the development of team skills. It is entitled, “Can transferable
teamwork team skills be taught? A longitudinal study”. We found that
students who had been in a paired set of two TBL courses received higher
peer evaluations in a course one or two semesters later even though they
were LESS proficient with the highly quantitative content (lower iRAT and
exam scores) than their lower rated peers who hadn't been taught with TBL.
It is something we've always believed but, until now, didn't have empirical
evidence to support.
