Hi

One of the nicest stories that came out of the interviews for my book was a grade 11 girl….that won a scholarship to a private boarding school….she was less academically prepared then her peers and struggled in her grade 11 math course (done using TBL)

She realized early that her strength could be fostering the best possible team dynamics and conversations…she became an absolute star in the group….not because she had the answers…not because she spoke a lot

I love that TBL can be about so much more than who is the brightest or most vocal or most quiet or most reserved….

Quoting Paul… humans find a way to interact productively when they have a common goal and are rewarded for progress toward that goal.

(BTW nice summary Paul)

Subject: Re: Team Dynamics Problem

Dear Cynthia:  This is always a potential concern among those of us who educate in natural or biomedical sciences, given our observations of occasional persons who would simply rather avoid interactions with others.  A few things about TBL (theoretical and practical) :

(1) there is a very wide range of "normal", acceptable behavior within teams.   There are always a spectrum of extroverts, medium-verts, and introverts.   There are always those who prefer to talk more than listen, and vice versa.   And there are usually some who would just as soon not talk at all.   Diversity in social comfort level is normal.

(2) by its design,  TBL encourages and rewards team performance.   A team member with social skills and graces is helpful, especially during the early phases of team development.   But if  social skills are not accompanied by sharing of knowledge and thinking skills, the socialite will eventually be judged and found wanting.

(3) Most importantly, the quiet or withdrawn person will eventually make a contribution to a team decision (even if it's a simple "I vote for C" or "I prefer B over C").  When that first contribution is perceived by teammates as enhancing the team's performance (as is typically the case), the other team members will be motivated to use ever-so-subtle maneuvers to bring the quiet one into the discussion, while affirming how valuable to the team is the quiet one's opinion.   (the IF-AT card promotes this process).

(4) Lastly, even when peers find a teammate to be extremely shy or withdrawn, to the point of being unwilling to speak or make eye contact,  most teammates will be motivated to provide encouraging non-verbal or verbal feedback to that person, because "breaking the ice" is not merely altruistic, but somewhat driven by a self-serving desire for better team performance.

I have been doing TBL for 12 years with over 1000 medical students exhibiting a wide range of social maturity.   I can only remember 2 cases in which a person remained withdrawn for months, despite the team's well-intentioned efforts.  One student, who was repeating the year because of academic failure,  believed that her contributions would actually hurt the team's performance, so she decided that she would not offer her opinions because of that fear.   The other student spoke English as a second language, and felt very uncomfortable putting his ideas into words.  However, that student did, when asked, give his preferred answer to the group.  He just would not explain his reasons.

Summary:  except for rare instances, humans find a way to interact productively when they have a common goal and are rewarded for progress toward that goal.

Subject: Team dynamics problem

Greetings TBL colleagues -

I could use some advice.

For the first time in the 8 years I have been using TBL, I have a team that=
is not working well. One of the team members (I=92ll call him Jeff-not his=
real name) does not talk to, make eye contact with, or engage with the tea=
m unless they are working on a tRAT. When they are engaged in team applicat=
ions during class, he does not turn to face the rest of his teammates, does=
not contribute and does not listen to them. As with all students, he knows=
that team contributions count for 15% of the final grade.

Context:
This is a first year graduate US law course, and I am working with teams of=
6.

On this particular team, half the students have come straight from undergra=
d,and  2 of the others have worked for a while before coming to law school.=
Jeff is a bit older than the others, has a PhD in science and was educated=
in EU in predominately lecture-based settings. In his team he has voiced h=
is dislike of all the assessments in this course, and said that he wished i=
t were like some other law school courses, where the only grade is on the f=
inal exam.

Students in this class have given and received anonymous midterm peer feedb=
ack (now 2 weeks ago). Several of the members of the team have several time=
s come to talk to me about how to engage this student. In the feedback he r=
eceived, Jeff was asked to participate more. That has not happened.  The st=
udents had ideas about how to try to engage him more, and he has not been r=
esponsive. At this point, two of the students are very frustrated as they k=
eep trying to get Jeff to work with them, but they are finding that they ar=
e spending a lot of time trying to get him involved when he appears to have=
no interest in doing so. They don=92t want to =93write him off=94 and not =
engage him during team applications, but they =96 and I =96 are not sure ho=
w best to handle this. A couple of team graded team applications are coming=
up over the next month, and we have 2 more tRATs to do.

I am not sure how to respond to this situation, and would love your ideas a=
nd suggestions.

Thanks much,

~ Sophie

I was asked a similar question by a colleague using TBL in another
discipline a couple of weeks ago. I’d not had this problem before so I
had to think about it for a day or two and discussed it with a
colleague. Here’s what we came up with:

1. Write an impromptu, discipline-related task (as an application
exercise) that challenges the teams to solve a similar problem, but in
the workplace i.e. looking forward to a time that they are in practice.
This task might include others tasks as well but build in an appropriate
problem e.g. a colleague in the work team that isn’t pulling their
weight or a client that won’t engage or talk during a case
review/hearing or a case that demonstrates the need for all team members
to pull their weight in the workplace. A 4S case that challenges the
teams to come up with a solution might create some useful class
discussion afterwards and provide the team with some ideas. Jeff might
even come to realise that actually the workplace is all about teamwork
and reflect a little on his behaviour to date?

2. Consider using the ‘Jeff Case’ you describe below as an application
exercise when introducing students to TBL for the first time in the
future. Setting the teams a similar challenge about how they would
engage with and challenge a possible ‘Jeff’ in their team will create
some really useful class discussion and acts as a kind of preventative,
pre-emptive strike in case there are any possible Jeffs out there. If
someone isn’t engaging later on in the course, then the teams might be
able to draw on this discussion and handle this themselves, possibly
just with the phrase ‘come on, talk to us, don’t be a Jeff!’ Deep down,
no one really wants to think that they are being the ‘Jeff' in their group….

Hope this makes sense and good luck with Jeff!

Perhaps you could share with the Listserv how and if this problem is
eventually resolved?

Best wishes

Greetings TBL colleagues -

I could use some advice.

For the first time in the 8 years I have been using TBL, I have a team
that is not working well. One of the team members (I’ll call him
Jeff-not his real name) does not talk to, make eye contact with, or
engage with the team unless they are working on a tRAT. When they are
engaged in team applications during class, he does not turn to face the
rest of his teammates, does not contribute and does not listen to them.
As with all students, he knows that team contributions count for 15% of
the final grade.

Context:
This is a first year graduate US law course, and I am working with teams
of 6.

On this particular team, half the students have come straight from
undergrad,and 2 of the others have worked for a while before coming to
law school. Jeff is a bit older than the others, has a PhD in science
and was educated in EU in predominately lecture-based settings. In his
team he has voiced his dislike of all the assessments in this course,
and said that he wished it were like some other law school courses,
where the only grade is on the final exam.

Students in this class have given and received anonymous midterm peer
feedback (now 2 weeks ago). Several of the members of the team have
several times come to talk to me about how to engage this student. In
the feedback he received, Jeff was asked to participate more. That has
not happened. The students had ideas about how to try to engage him
more, and he has not been responsive. At this point, two of the students
are very frustrated as they keep trying to get Jeff to work with them,
but they are finding that they are spending a lot of time trying to get
him involved when he appears to have no interest in doing so. They don’t
want to “write him off” and not engage him during team applications, but
they – and I – are not sure how best to handle this. A couple of team
graded team applications are coming up over the next month, and we have
2 more tRATs to do.

I am not sure how to respond to this situation, and would love your
ideas and suggestions.

Thanks much,

Team members within a successful team (a team that learns) each have individ=
ual perceptions of what team learning means.=20

I am preparing to interview 4 members of a successful community of practice w=
ho I have never met, about what team learning is, looks like, feels like, so=
unds like. Does anyone have any suggestions for questions that could generat=
e responses, particularly stories?
