Advantages: Providing more up to date information to students?
My experience is with tag-team style which I (and many of the other students) found to be challenging. Having to readjust to a different professor's style of teaching every couple of weeks interrupts the flow of learning.
Here is an interesting link with some ideas about styles of collaborative teaching:

Dear Shankhadeep Chakraborty
There are three models that the CFT describes here for faculty and student consideration as you contemplate collaborative teaching: traditional team teaching, linked courses for student learning communities, and connected pairs of courses meeting at the same time.

Sharing (in teaching and research) through collaborations synergies both teaching and research. Good and matching combinations/collaborations may lead to perfection.
It also serves the diversified needs/problems of the students, scholars, and even teachers.
The advantages of collaborative teaching are:
1. We can cover up the shortage of teachers
2. Students will be benefited by new ideas
3. Advantage of diversity
4. Can form the research groups
5. Can associate the experts in the field
6. Even teachers can get the benefits of expertise
7. Helpful in benchmarking
7. Etc. ... .
The disadvantages of collaborative teaching are:
1. Full services of collaborators may not be available
2. Sometimes, seriousness is lacking
3. Become dependent
4. May cause of conflicts
5. Can't be perfect replacement of permanent faculty
6. Etc. ... .
