Here's an interesting concept. I have been asked to run a staff development for faculty on how to use TBL. But I've been asked to do it jointly with colleagues who having been using PBL also. The attempt is I think to highlight both types of teaching methodologies to other faculty who are still using not much else but didactic teaching.

Given my own invaluable experiences on learning about TBL by doing it (including sessions by Paul Koles et al)my gut instinct is that this is asking too much of everyone in a session and the focus should be on one of the other but not both but I just wondered about the groups experiences or thoughts on this?

Thanks
