Team-based learning (TBL) and small group discussion (SGD) showed similar effectiveness in medical education. While TBL did not significantly improve scores overall, a trend towards higher performance was observed in later themes.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Pedagogy

Background:

  • Traditional teaching methods are being re-evaluated for effectiveness.
  • Innovative pedagogical approaches like team-based learning (TBL) and small group discussion (SGD) are gaining traction in medical education.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare the academic performance of medical students using TBL versus SGD.
  • To determine if TBL offers a significant advantage over SGD in knowledge acquisition.

Main Methods:

  • A quasi-experimental cross-over study was conducted with second-year MBBS students.
  • Students were assigned to TBL or SGD for 8 themes, with groups switching after 4 themes.
  • Academic performance was assessed via end-of-module written examination scores and analyzed using independent sample t-tests.

Main Results:

  • No significant difference in scores was found for the first 4 themes (p=0.41).
  • A significant difference favoring TBL was observed for themes 5-8 (p=0.03).
  • A consistent trend of higher scores in TBL was noted across all themes.

Conclusions:

  • Team-based learning (TBL) is as effective as small group discussion (SGD) in this cohort.
  • The study did not definitively establish that TBL leads to significant learning improvements.
  • Further research may be needed to explore TBL's impact on different learning outcomes.
