Team based Learning at UT 

Team-Based Learning (TBL) is an increasingly-popular form of small group learning.
The four components of TBL are permanent teams, readiness assurance, application activities, and peer evaluation.
TBL is possible even in large theater-style classrooms with fixed seats.
TBL teachers report high levels of student attendance, preparation, participation and critical thinking.
TBL students report being more motivated and enjoying class more, even when the subject is not in their major.
