How we implemented team-based learning for postgraduate doctors

Abstract

TBL can be successfully introduced into a residency training programme. Tips for implementation include: involve a TBL expert and provide experiential training for faculty; hold an orientation session for residents; and provide individual and team incentives to reinforce pre-class preparation and promote engagement with TBL. Avoid underestimating the effort involved in converting lecture-based teaching into TBL and do not assign excessive pre-session assignments.
