The health sciences present unique challenges for educators in terms of the structure, timing, and context of educational efforts. This creates a particularly vibrant and complex environment, and also creates opportunities for research. Amid this environment, the growing popularity of Team-Based Learning leads to a need for ongoing scholarship about the effects of the method, its implementation, and its dissemination. In today’s web seminar, Paul Haidet, one of the original proponents of TBL in medical education, provides a sampling of some of the representative work to date, and discusses issues in performing research in the setting of TBL classrooms. He will also sample some of the research tools that have been used to evaluate TBL, and present a conceptual model to drive future scholarly efforts. A bibliography of current peer-reviewed articles will be provided.
