TBLC Call for Abstracts Now Open!

You are invited to submit proposal abstracts on any topics relevant to team-based learning. We are asking for three different types of abstracts for three of our tracks. These include the following:

• Fundamentals track – for novices to TBL to help them learn the essential skills to get a TBL program started at their own institution. An example might include a workshop on facilitation techniques, or “How to Write Good Readiness Assurance Tests”
  
  
• Innovations track – for those who are experienced with TBL to provide information about experiences with particular types of courses or learners or new or innovative techniques. An example might include a poster titled “A TBL Science Course for 9^th Graders” or a workshop titled “How to start a Web-Based TBL Course.”
  
  
• Research/Scholarship track – for those interested in presenting methods related to educational research or research studies about TBL. An example might be a workshop entitled “Getting a research program starting in your TBL course” or it could be an oral presentation in which you present research that you have done such as “Evidence of standardized test performance gains in Pharmacy students following implementation of a TBL curriculum”.

The deadline for submission of abstracts for Oral Presentations and Workshops is September 15, 2010. Abstracts for Poster presentations will be due December 15, 2010. Abstracts are to emailed to admin@tblcollaborative.org in MS Word format. All other formats will be returned.
