Team‐based learning is an active learning strategy that enhances student learning, understanding, and retention of content while building interpersonal skills. Central to this strategy is training students to be responsible for their own learning so that they come to class prepared to engage in higher level thinking and problem solving. This presentation will show you how team‐based learning can be used in any discipline to create an energizing classroom environment. Team-based learning utilizes peer‐instruction to create a teaching and learning experience that is fun and rewarding for both the teacher and the learner!
