Special Report - Team Program Is an Experiment in Active Learning - NYTimes.com

  • “For medical students the real test is being able to use content to diagnose and treat patients — and that’s a very different skill than simply remembering what the content is,” he said. “The reason that team-based learning is attractive to so many medical educators is that it is a practical approach for shifting the focus of education from covering content to applying the content to solve real and meaningful problems.”
  • Duke-NUS has adapted Mr. Michaelsen’s method slightly. It calls its variation of the method “Team LEAD, ” which stands for learn, engage and develop. But the essentials of this version remain the same as Mr. Michaelsen’s method.

    At the start of the year, students are divided into teams, which remain the same through the year. Before each class, they are given assignments to learn independently and in their teams. In the classroom there is an initial “readiness” phase in which they are tested, individually and in their teams, through multiple-choice questions on a scratch card.

    “This is a good way to teach students to work in a team, to be able to express their opinion and critically analyze what other people say,” Dr. Kamei said.

    After the readiness phase, they move on to specific case studies, tackled by applying their memorized knowledge, complemented by medical literature and notes.

    “Faculty does not talk, but listens to the conversations of the students, who are still working in teams,” Dr. Kamei said. “The students have to explain and defend their answers because they could have found the right answer but for the wrong reasons.”

    At regular intervals, as the course progresses, the students undergo peer evaluation focused on their ability to contribute to the team effort. The results of peer evaluation contribute about 10 percent to the final grade.
