C2 - Team Based Learning

In the Morning session, attendees will participate in a TBL module as learners in a classroom. They will ‘prepare ahead’ by reading a brief assignment, complete the Individual Readiness Assessment (IRAT) after being assigned to a Team, then move onto the Group Readiness Assessment (GRAT) and Group Application. Throughout the experience, there will be opportunities for questions and clarifications about the process, including discussion about the peer feedback component.

For the Afternoon, attendees, who attended the Morning session, will participate in another TBL session devoted to identifying the meaningful elements of a module’s objectives, IRAT, Group Application, and then create a Group Application question. Discussions will focus on the process of module creation and facilitation.

1) Determine the best way to assign their learners to Teams

2) Identify content that is appropriate for creating a TBL module

3) Write a Group Application, an IRAT/GRAT, and module objectives
