Team-based learning (TBL) is popular in health professions education. This review found variability in TBL implementation and challenges integrating interprofessional education (IPE) into TBL programs.
Area of Science:
- Health Professions Education
- Interprofessional Education
- Pedagogical Research
Background:
- Team-based learning (TBL) is increasingly adopted in health professions education.
- Its application in interprofessional contexts aims to enhance collaborative practice readiness.
Purpose of the Study:
- To systematically review the evidence on the extent, design, and practice of interprofessional TBL in health professions degree programs.
- To inform interprofessional education (IPE) educators and curriculum designers.
Main Methods:
- A systematic search of PubMed Central, CINAHL, Web of Science, and ERIC was conducted for articles published between January 2010 and June 2020.
- Included studies described TBL programs with students from multiple health professions.
- Data extraction focused on study characteristics and the seven core TBL design elements.
Main Results:
- Twelve articles met the inclusion criteria.
- Significant variability was observed in the application and reporting of TBL's core design elements.
- These variations highlighted challenges in implementing interprofessional TBL.
Conclusions:
- TBL's structured format is suitable for IPE.
- Challenges include student distribution, varied TBL experience, resource needs, timetabling, single-session limitations, case design, curriculum alignment, grading inequities, and limited peer review opportunities.

Guidelines for Writing Outcome
Patient outcomes reflect the patient's response to the goal rather than what the nurse aims to achieve. Terminology should be observable and measurable to avoid the reader's interpretation. The desired outcome should be realistic and achievable in the designated care timeframe. Expected outcomes should align with adjunctive therapies. The outcome should enhance care...
Guidelines for Nursing Documentation II
Timely documentation is crucial to ensure continuity of care for patients. Any delays in recording or reporting medical information can result in medical errors and even adverse patient outcomes. From medication administration to diagnostic test results, every detail must be accurately and promptly documented to provide the best possible care for patients.
