Session Information:

In 2012, CIT brought together faculty across campus to integrate Team-Based Learning into our classrooms. We found this collaborative environment a rich opportunity to share teaching strategies and challenges. We have now used TBL in our undergraduate and graduate courses, both for small seminars and large survey courses. We will share lessons learned and ideas for how others can use these techniques to create engaging, productive classrooms.
