I don't think lack of teachers is the reason for the team based learning. The dean is really passionate about this teaching method and I think in a lot of ways it is a more effective way of learning. It stimulates more thought and discussion in the classroom and requires that you come prepared to class. The TBL exercise consisted of us taking a short multiple choice quiz individually, then taking the quiz as a group. It was a short preview to how a normal day in class would be at this school.
