Description

Russell Marcus, an award-winning teacher, shows how to successfully adapt team-based learning to a philosophy classroom. Popular in business and medical schools, team-based learning can seem complex. This lively guide makes the pedagogy easy and approachable, revealing its many benefits.

Marcus draws on his experience applying team-based learning structures to philosophy. You see how guided, structured instruction can enhance a student's ability to develop core skills and succeed in the discipline. In place of traditional lecture-based pedagogies, team-based learning encourages students to listen and speak more effectively. They are able to interpret texts charitably, contrast competing claims, hear various perspectives, develop original insights, and to talk and write cogently about them all.

Team-based learning is an opportunity to scaffold important skills. By showing instructors at every level how to adapt the best of its techniques, Marcus helps your students to learn and do philosophy.
