Discover a modified TBL approach that leverages focused IRAT/TRAT strategies and InteDashboard to boost student success and engagement.
About the event
Team-Based Learning (TBL) was developed in 1979 by Larry Michaelsen to foster engagement and collaboration in large classrooms. Over time, educators have adapted TBL to meet evolving needs. In this session, Steve Schneid from University of California San Diego explains why he chose a modified TBL approach—emphasizing higher-order IRAT and TRAT items—to enhance student success. Join the conversation with Steve Schneid and his students on why they decided to modify the TBL approach to suit their learning context.
Steve will share the components and activities he includes in his modified TBL approach. He will also share how he uses InteDashboard to streamline the delivery of his TBL session. Additionally, you'll hear firsthand accounts from postbaccalaureate premedical and medical students about their experiences with this modified method.
Learning objectives
At the end of this session, participants will be able to:
- Describe the rationale for using higher-order IRAT/TRAT items
- Describe the changes to the traditional TBL structure to use higher-order IRAT/TRAT items
- Generate higher-order IRAT/TRAT items
Who this is for
- Educators and Instructional Designers who are interested in exploring how a modified TBL approach can enhance learning outcomes and student engagement.
- Faculty and Program Leaders looking to understand how student feedback can drive broader faculty support for TBL initiatives.
- Advisors, Academic Technologists, and Administrators seeking practical insights on leveraging InteDashboard to streamline TBL implementation and analyze performance data.
