team teaching

[Jon Monroe]

Plant-eders,

Sorry if this comes to you twice, the first one I sent bounced back to me.

We are contemplating a major change in our curriculum which will 
probably involve going from taxon-based first year courses (Botany 
and Zoology) to process-based courses (e.g. Structure and Function of 
Organisms, Evolution and Ecology...).  In order to represent all taxa 
in some of these courses it may be best to teach them as teams but 
this can create problems for students.  Can anyone share their 
thoughts how they solved those problems?

Thanks.

Jon
