It sounds like the students want the TBLs to be review sessions, which is not what they should be used for (forgive my ending the sentence with a preposition, but we do that in the Midwest).

Subject: Distribution of TBLs in the curriculum

Greetings,

We recently started our organ system modules. Each module is 4-5 weeks in length. Some of the students suggested the TBLs might be more useful to them if all the TBLs were at the end of the course rather than interspersed in the curriculum.

Is anyone doing this? What are the positives/negatives? What are your lessons learned?

Thanks,
Bill----
