Oral
presentation
Aim: The aim of the present study is to evaluate
the efficiency of TBL (Team Based Learning) sessions which was newly introduced
in skeletal system anatomy courses in the medical school program of Acıbadem
University.
Methods: First, the TBL method was introduced to
year 2 medical students and all necessary documents and resources were
supplied. 88 students were grouped as 8 teams. Totally, four integrated TBL
sessions were programmed. Each session began with an individual readiness
assurance test followed by a team readiness assurance test. Then, laboratory
sessions were held in which teams had the chance to examine both the cadavers
and anatomic models and then had oral examination. To evaluate students’
perceptions of their TBL experiences, a questionnaire was given. The data
obtained was statistically analyzed by Pearson’s correlation test. TBL
perceptions of faculty members were also recorded.
Results: Satisfied individual students’
perceptions to TBL and the team work effectivity was found positively
correlated (p<0.05).
Conclusions: Our results show that students
experienced a different way of learning anatomy which forced them to study
before coming to the lecture; this was quite unusual. Studying together with
teammates also positively affected their learning. TBL was shown favorable at
least for skeletal anatomy courses.
