Synopsis

This book describes team-based learning (TBL), a powerful and versatile teaching strategy that enables teachers to take small group learning to a whole new level of effectiveness. It is the only pedagogical use of small groups that is based on a recognition of the critical difference between 'groups' and 'teams', and intentionally employs specific procedures to transform newly-formed groups into high performance learning teams. This book is a complete guide to implementing TBL in a way that will promote the deep learning all teachers strive for.

Media Reviews
Five years ago, after 25 years of teaching, I adopted Team-Based Learning. The impact on student learning and my pleasure in teaching was profound. My course gained such a positive reputation that it grew from 25 students to 400 - with TBL equally effective at this level of enrollment - and I recently was recognized with the Chancellor's Award for Excellence in Teaching. This book includes all the wisdom, inspiration and practical advice needed to implement TBL in the classroom. - Jane Connor, professor of Psychology, SUNY Binghamton
