The paper showcases the encouraging results of the cooperative learning (CL) method Team Game Tournament (TGT). TGT helps students to improve and accelerate their learning. In TGT success of the team is dependent on the success of the individual [5]. A tournament is played between small academically balanced teams. Facilitators form such teams and note the performance of each team by visual monitoring, data from student questionnaires, and exam results. Exam results of Third Year Automobile course Machine Design (AE301) with and without TGT are compared. Students' performance in exams is improved, they show to be focused and participative, to develop their critical thinking. Because of TGT, deep discussions happened on topics by students in a group. They enjoy the new learning format. Social skills like teamwork and managing conflict are developed in students. Students' feedback and improvement of their performance in exams confirm the above perceptions.
