# Preparation Work

Before the TBL lesson start, the teacher will make some preparation materials available for you. These preparation material can be readings, videos, papers, etc.

Now, if you **don't want to be bored** during your TBL lesson, it is **highly recommend that you go over the preparation materials** thoroughly before the lesson.

This is quite important as the lesson - as well as  your interaction with other teammates, will be based on these materials.&#x20;

And **you will be assess on your preparation** as well.
