Transforming Lower Division Undergraduate Mathematics Through Team-Based Inquiry Learning Team-Based Learning is an active learning pedagogy used successfully in many disciplines such as the health sciences, but not yet common in mathematics. Typically implemented as flipped learning, TBL students first encounter new material individually outside of class, and then work in teams to extend knowledge and solve problems in class.
To adapt this model for mathematics, our team has developed Team-Based Inquiry Learning (TBIL), an implementation of team-based learning as inquiry learning , with a particular focus on facilitating the implementation of inquiry learning in lower division service courses such as Calculus I, Calculus II, and Linear Algebra. Our preliminary research at the University of South Alabama showed that compared to lectures, TBIL improves students’ mastery of content and increases their flexibility in solving problem
