This workshop aims to introduce participants to Team-Based Learning (TBL) by experiencing it as a student would. TBL is a student-centred ‘flipped’ learning and teaching strategy designed to engage students through a process of preparation, assessment and application of knowledge. It shifts the focus of classroom time from conveying course concepts by the instructor to the application of course concepts by student learning teams. It is also a useful model to help students develop team working skills.
We will demonstrate how we have redesigned TBL for use in remote teaching and incorporated asynchronous and synchronous elements which all use centrally supported software.
By the end of this session, participants will be able to:
-
Explain the essential elements that make up a team-based learning unit
-
Describe the benefits and challenges of using TBL
As TBL is a flipped teaching approach a short pre-reading for participants to read in advance will be sent prior to the session.
