The Team-Based Learning Collaborative (TBLC) invites all educators to attend our Mid-Year Virtual Forum. Have you ever questioned the effectiveness of your assessment and grading systems? Do grades really tell you very much? Do they matter? Are you interested in rethinking how you evaluate learners in your team-based learning courses?
Join us for a one-day virtual event where you can connect with colleagues from around the world as we:
Re-examine our thoughts on assessment and evaluation
Learn less conventional approaches to assessment
Explore methods of effective peer evaluation
Facilitate student growth through self-reflection
When: Friday, October 28, 2022, from 10:00 AM to 4:30 PM ET
From an expert plenary session to interactive TBL-style workshops to a fast-paced session highlighting a variety of effective approaches to peer evaluation, this will be an engaging opportunity for growth and relationship building.

The Team-Based Learning Collaborative extends a warm welcome to join them for their 22nd annual meeting from Saturday, March 11 to Tuesday, March 14, 2023. This year we are planning an exciting conference filled with engaging sessions and plenty of networking opportunities. “Engagement with TBL” is our central theme for this year’s conference.

More information about the submission instructions can be found here.
Proposals for oral presentations must be submitted by October 15, 2022.
Poster Presentations We invite you to submit abstracts for posters on any topic relevant to TBL. Poster presenters will be asked to design a poster to highlight major findings. All attendees of the meeting can submit in advance an abstract for a poster. Abstracts will be reviewed by the Program Committee for quality and relevance. Abstracts will be 300 words or less in length. While references are a usual component of a poster, do not include in the 300-word abstract. Please do not include figures in your abstract. More information about the submission instructions can be found here.
