Abstract
To explore the use and student outcomes of Team-Based Learning in nursing education. Team-Based Learning is a highly structured, evidence-based, student-centred learning strategy that enhances student engagement and facilitates deep learning in a variety of disciplines including nursing. However, the breadth of Team-Based Learning application in nursing education and relevant outcomes are not currently well understood. A scoping review of international, peer-reviewed research studies was undertaken according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for scoping reviews. The following databases were searched on 7 May 2020: Cumulative Index of Nursing and Allied Health Literature, MEDLINE Complete, PsycINFO and Education Resources Information Center. Search terms related to nursing, education and Team-Based Learning. Original research studies, published in English, and reporting on student outcomes from Team-Based Learning in nursing education programmes were included. Of the 1081 potentially relevant citations, 41 studies from undergraduate (n=29), postgraduate (n=4) and hospital (n=8) settings were included. The most commonly reported student outcomes were knowledge or academic performance (n=21); student experience, satisfaction or perceptions of Team-Based Learning (n=20); student engagement with behaviours or attitudes towards Team-Based Learning (n=12); and effect of Team-Based Learning on teamwork, team performance or collective efficacy (n=6). Only three studies reported clinical outcomes. Over the last decade, there has been a growing body of knowledge related to the use of Team-Based Learning in nursing education. The major gaps identified in this scoping review were the lack of randomised controlled trials and the dearth of studies of Team-Based Learning in postgraduate and hospital contexts. This scoping review provides a comprehensive understanding of the use and student outcomes of Team-Based Learning in nursing education and highlights the breadth of application of Team-Based Learning and variability in the outcomes reported.
