Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To compare student examination performance in pharmacotherapeutics before and after implementation of team-based learning. DESIGN: After the traditional lecture and workshop method for teaching pharmacotherapeutics was replaced with team-based learning in January 2009, students were expected to come to class having read assigned chapters in order to successfully complete an individual quiz, a group quiz, and group application exercises. ASSESSMENT: Student learning was assessed using performance on individual quizzes, group quizzes, and the examination at the end of the psychiatry module. Students performed as well on the examination at the end of the module as they did prior to team-based learning implementation. CONCLUSION: Substituting team-based learning for traditional lecture ensured that students prepared for class and increased student participation in class discussions.
