This volume explains how to plan and use team-based learning in higher education. It describes the use of teams and social learning, along with accountability structures and systematic instructional sequences and the fundamental principles involved, and how to design a team-based learning experience, maximize benefits and minimize risks, prepare for the journey, and understand how it provides a reliable, coherent instructional framework for the learning-centered classroom. It discusses the elements needed for forming and managing a team, motivating students to come to class prepared, helping them use course concepts to solve problems, and making them accountable.
