Description

Team-Based Learning for Health Professions Education is a guide to using small groups to improve learning in health education. This approach transforms traditional lecture-based coursework into an environment that promotes self-directed learning and teamwork.

The book outlines the theory, structure, and process of Team-Based Learning, explaining how it can be used to promote problem-solving and critical thinking skills, align with course goals, and enhance knowledge retention and application. It also provides guidance on team formation and maintenance, peer feedback and evaluation processes, and facilitation.

Readers will find practical examples from a range of undergraduate science courses, medical, sports medicine, and nursing education, as well as residencies and graduate nursing programs. The book concludes with a review of current scholarship on Team-Based Learning in health professions education and identifies areas for future research.
