what is it?<\/h2>\n

\"\"team-based learning<\/a> (tbl) is a structured form of small-group learning that emphasizes student preparation out of class and application of knowledge in class. students are organized strategically into diverse teams of 5-7 students that work together throughout the class. \u00a0before each unit or module of the course, students prepare by reading prior to class.<\/p>\n

in the first class of the module, students participate in a \u201creadiness assurance process,\u201d or rap. specifically, students complete a test individually<\/strong> (the \u201cindividual readiness assurance test,\u201d or irat);<\/p>\n

and then complete the test with their group members<\/strong> (the \u201cgroup readiness assurance test,\u201d or grat). both the individual scores and the group scores contribute to the students\u2019 grades. the tests are typically multiple choice, and students often complete the group test using a \u201cscratch-off\u201d sheet and score themselves, reducing grading time and<\/em> promoting student discussion of correct answers.<\/p>\n

after the students complete the group test, the instructor encourages teams to appeal questions that they got incorrect. the appeals process encourages students to review the material, evaluate their understanding, and defend the choice they made.<\/p>\n

to conclude the readiness assurance process, the instructor gives a mini-lecture that focuses on concepts with which students struggled the most.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

importantly, this work serves as preparation for the in-class application activities that complete the module. these application activities require the teams to make a specific choice about a significant problem. importantly, all teams work on the same problem and report their decisions simultaneously. this structure requires teams to articulate their thinking, and gives teams an opportunity to evaluate their own reasoning when confronted with different decisions that other teams may make. peer evaluation is an important part of team-based learning; it is essential for keeping students accountable to their teammates.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

l. dee fink uses a method in which students are given 100 points<\/a> to distribute among their teammates (but don\u2019t evaluate themselves). based on all team members\u2019 evaluations, a student is assigned a score (out of 100) that is used as a multiplier for the score they receive for group activities. thus, if a team member does not contribute to group activities, her or her score for the group activities will suffer, while a team member who contributes very effectively benefits.<\/p>\n

larry michaelson uses a variation of this method in which a student evaluates the other members of her team and distributes a set number of points among them. the points the students receive from each of their teammates determine the peer evaluation score that is a direct component of their grade for a given module.<\/p>\n

theoretical basis<\/h2>\n

patricia hrynchak and helen batty provide an excellent analysis of the theoretical basis of team based learning (2012).they argue that team-based learning incorporates the main elements of constructivist learning, in which the \u201cfocus is on the mental representation of information by the learner\u201d (svinicki 2004, p. 242; kaufman 2003):<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. the teacher is a guide to facilitate learning.<\/li>\n
  2. learners should encounter inconsistencies between preconceptions and new experiences to provide a basis for development of new understandings.<\/li>\n
  3. a focus on relevant problems accompanied by group interaction promotes learning.<\/li>\n
  4. learning requires reflection.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    team-based learning is consistent with all of these elements. the teacher establishes the learning objectives and chooses the problems on which the students will focus but then acts as a guide while teams work toward their solution to the problem. a careful choice of problems can help reveal common student misconceptions, and the constant interaction and debate among team members allows learners to compare their current understandings with those of other team members and to construct new understandings. group interaction and a focus on relevant problems is an inherent element of team-based learning. finally, team-based learning provides several opportunities for reflection: during the group readiness assessment test; while hearing other teams\u2019 reports of their conclusions; and during the peer evaluation process, which often includes self-evaluation.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    does it work?<\/h2>\n

    team-based learning is one version of a flipped classroom<\/a>, which is supported by a 1998 study by richard hake. hake gathered data on 2084 students in 14 introductory physics courses taught by traditional methods (defined by the instructor as relying primarily on passive student lectures and algorithmic problem exams), allowing him to define an average gain for students in such courses using pre\/post-test data. hake then compared these results to those seen with interactive engagement methods, defined as \u201cheads-on (always) and hands-on (usually) activities which yield immediate feedback through discussion with peers and\/or instructors\u201d (hake p. 65) for 4458 students in 48 courses. he found that students taught with interactive engagement methods exhibited learning gains almost two standard deviations higher than those observed in the traditional courses (0.48 +\/- 0.14 vs. 0.23 +\/- 0.04).<\/p>\n

    more specifically, team-based learning has been shown to produce learning gains in a variety of healthcare education classrooms. a selection of those studies are described here.<\/p>\n

    levine and colleagues incorporated team-based learning into a psychiatry clerkship curriculum, replacing half of the lectures with tbl activities including readiness assurance tests and application exercises (2004). following implementation of team-based learning, students performed significantly better on the national board of medical examiners psychiatry subject test.\u00a0 they also scored higher on attitudes about working in teams and reported the team learning activities to be more effective learning strategies.<\/p>\n

    paul koles and colleagues compared medical students\u2019 test performance on questions that assessed concepts learned by tbl methods or by other methods (2010). students exhibited higher mean scores on questions that assessed knowledge of content learned via tbl than on questions assessing content learned using other methods. importantly, students within the lowest quartile showed the greatest gains: average\u00a0 improvement of 7.9% for students in the lowest quartile as compared to average improvement of 5.5% for all students.<\/p>\n

    zgheib and colleagues investigated the impact of team-based learning for second year medical students in a pharmacology course (2010). they found that team-based learning approaches were more effective than traditional lecture-based pedagogy for improving student learning of difficult concepts but were not more effective for easier concepts.<\/p>\n

    where can i learn more?<\/h2>\n

    the best source of information about team-based learning is the team-based learning collaborative website<\/a>. the website provides an introduction to tbl, specific information about elements to consider when implementing tbl, and books<\/a> and articles<\/a> on tbl.<\/p>\n
