What is Team Based Learning (TBL)?
Team-based learning (TBL) is a collaborative learning and teaching strategy that enables people to follow a structured process to enhance student engagement and the quality of student or trainee learning. Team-based learning methodology can be used in any classroom or training sessions at school or in the workplace. Team-based learning consists of modules that can be taught in a three-step cycle: preparation, in-class readiness assurance testing, and application-focused exercise. It consists of five essential components, with an optional last stage.
The five essential components are :
1. Individual pre-work
2. Individual Readiness Assurance Test (IRAT)
3. Team Readiness Assurance Test (TRAT)
4. Clarification session
5. Application exercises & Peer evaluation (optional)
Programme Outline:
The programme is facilitated over three 1-day sessions and is non-residential in nature. It is important to note that the training will be run through the TBL Methodology so there will be pre-readings, RAT, Clarifying, and 4 S Assessments.
