Résumé
Team based learning (TBL) is shown to have a positive impact on learning abilities. In this study, we compared the individual and group readiness assurance grades of dental students toward a modified TBL protocol for an orthodontic topic. All of the dentistry students in 2 different annual intakes from Shiraz University of Medical Sciences took part in the study. The references and methods for holding the class was presented to the vice dean of educational affairs and to the students. At the beginning of the session, individual readiness assurance test (iRAT) was held. Then, the students were asked to arrange in 15-member groups for a modified TBL exercise. Each group took part in the team readiness assessment test (tRAT) and draw concept maps of 5 major topics. Then, they presented their team work, discussed them, and concluded. At the end of the session, the students reported their attitude on the pre-constructed assay form. The data were analyzed with SPSS software 17, using paired T test and Wilcoxon signed rank test. We observed statistically significant improvement in the tRAT score compared with iRAT in the male and female participants (P-value <0.001). More than 60% of the participants felt that TBL enhanced the overall satisfaction and pleasure from participation in class. Based on our study, team work depicted significant improvement in the students' scores of an orthodontic topic. According to students, satisfaction with TBL was favorable and improved with additional experience.
