Well first we want them to learn about the content area. Did the TBL help them learn the content?  Was the part of the TBL that was most helpful in their learning?  Do they see how the TBL helped them prepare for using ethical reasoning in the future?

Is that helping?

I’m using TBL in my class this compressed, wintermester.  A colleague is teaching another section, without TBL. Both require group work.  I wanted to do a quick survey (~5 questions) asking about the students’ group experiences, comparing the two sections.  What objectives do I hope students are achieving through TBL?  Maybe I’m still recovering from fall semester, but I’m finding myself stumped! All I can think is “better group experiences.” What would you say are the TBL objectives?

(This is for an undergraduate class on ethical reasoning and group work, if that matters.)
