This guide explains the pedagogical principles of team-based learning and their use to promote critical thinking, cooperation, the mastery of discipline knowledge, and the ability to apply it. Fifteen chapters by professors teaching in a range of disciplines discuss the key ideas of team-based learning, the experiences of practitioners, and major lessons from those experiences. Appendices answer common questions, discuss peer evaluations and grading, and supply supporting materials. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
