Team-based learning (TBL) is a form of student-centered active learning which will help to develop various professional skills, problem solving, interpersonal team skills, and self-directed independent learning. The success of TBL approach depends on its design comprising Team formation, Project identification and distribution, monitoring the progress, maintaining open discussion in every phase and peer evaluation. This paper presents the case study TBL design done for minor project course. First step, the team formation plays a very important role in projects. Therefore the teams are formed based on the complementary skills of the student and ensuring that each team has an expert member in every identified skill. The next step is project distribution, while distributing the project the team strength is calculated and accordingly the problem statements are assigned. Also to increase the motivation and learning in the team, open discussions are held where each team can review and critic other teams work in every phase. The last part in the TBL is assessment and evaluation, which is incomplete without including peer evaluation. Although the Team work is evaluated by the instructor, the individual evaluation is done by both instructor as well as peer students within the team. This TBL design has improved the team's performance and each individual is able to work better in a team. Here students could successfully build and lunch mobile app as a product. The paper gives results of various TBL components. It concludes with challenges faced in this case study for further research. |
