About TBL
Team-based Learning (TBL) is a structured, student-centred learning and teaching strategy that takes a ‘flipped’ approach to learning. It is designed to promote active, engaging and sustainable learning through a process of preparation, testing and application of knowledge. In this workshop, the basic principles of Team Based Learning (TBL) will be addressed. For more information watch the short video explanation.
Workshop
In this workshop, the basic principles of Team Based Learning (TBL) will be addressed. In order to give participants the opportunity to experience the TBL process themselves, the workshop will be given according to the TBL format. Participants will receive materials to prepare for the workshop and will be presented with a short test at the start of the session. After this test the knowledge that was acquired will be applied in teams.
After following the workshop, you will be able to:
- explain the difference between teaching in a traditional educational method and a TBL session
- describe the essential elements of TBL
- explain how and why TBL works
- develop a TBL setup for your own course
