Abstract

Team-Based Learning (TBL) is an instructor-led, structured form of cooperative learning that promotes self-directed learning and teamwork while equipping students with the problem-solving and collaborative skills needed to meet the demands of their future professions. This study examines the impact of applying a modified TBL approach to enhance educational seminars in a PBL-adopted curriculum. A total of 300 students participated in the study. Students' Individual Readiness Assurance Test (IRAT) mean scores were compared with mean scores of the same students' Group Readiness Assurance Test (GRAT). Student satisfaction was determined on a scale with 6 options in response to 13 questions to compare different aspects of traditional and TBL educational seminars. Comparison between IRAT and GRAT scores showed consistently higher GRAT scores. The majority of students expressed their overall satisfaction in favor of the TBL seminar, especially regarding seminar organization, knowledge acquisition, and team work skills. Application of the TBL approach in educational seminars increased second- and third-year medical students' engagement and satisfaction and improved their test performance.
