I have found that by not having a fixed duration for class tests and giving the class 2 minutes to complete iRAT and tRAT tests after most students have completed the tests is a good way to accommodate students with special needs. I have a module on the TBLC website Resource Bank that includes the slides to manage tests in that way. I have also catered for a blind student by emailing them the test questions in Word format.

I’m happy to provide details, especially at the coming TBLC Annual Conference (San Diego, March 1 to 3). I look forward to seeing you there.

TBL’ers,

I have just completed teaching my course for the second year using TBL.  I am trying to follow the TBL approach as closely as I can and I as well as many of my students are happy with the process and outcome.  There certainly is room for improvement and I have targeted a few areas that were implemented this past year and have some ideas already for next year. 

 

Here is my question…

I would welcome the opportunity for me and a colleague to visit your institution (if more than one course uses TBL) or your course (if you are the sole TBL’er) to see how you express TBL in the classroom.  I  think I need to see TBL in action from someone else to become better at it myself.  I suspect there are others out there that would enjoy the same opportunity.  I currently teach in a physical therapy program at the graduate level so visiting an upper level medical/clinical program would be most desirable but would certainly entertain any offers.  Could turn into a peer mentor or support group.  So…..who wants company?

Thanks for considering!

Mike
