🎷 What can jazz teach us about TBL facilitation?

Team-Based Learning

Hi TBL-ers!

Sometimes, even with a well-planned TBL session, discussions can take unexpected turns. A few students may dominate or the conversation may move away from the intended learning objectives.

Our latest blog looks at what jazz improvisation can teach us about navigating these moments as facilitators, through three practical skills:

  1. Building a repertoire of facilitation techniques
  2. Developing your own educator voice
  3. Learning when to accompany rather than lead

It also includes ideas from the TBL Facilitation Grid and a workshop recording of Jazz and TBL: Improvisation Skills for Facilitating Great Sessions.
