Team-based learning (TBL) is an instructional approach in which students work collaboratively to solve significant problems. In contrast to other teaching methods, TBL provides a systematic approach in which students are provided consistent opportunities to engage in critical thinking. Although the research about the use of TBL in teacher education is scarce, research has reported a number of positive outcomes from other fields, including increased critical thinking skills and student outcomes. The purpose of this chapter is to describe TBL as an instructional format that can be implemented in teacher preparation programs to facilitate the development of critical thinking skills. It provides an overview of TBL, describes research outcomes related to critical thinking and student outcomes, provides examples of TBL from teacher preparation courses, and provides next steps for teacher educators interested in getting started with TBL. |
