Team-based learning is a highly structured form of a flipped classroom and small-group learning that emphasizes student preparation out of class and application of knowledge in class.

Advantages of this approach include:

• Students have a lot of opportunities for peer-peer feedback 
• Predictable structure

Some challenges of this approach include:

• Reliance on engagement with preparatory work (independent study)

TBL consists of: 

1. Strategically formed, permanent teams (5-7 students)

2. Readiness assurance exercises (independent and group) 

3. Application activities that address a significant problem, ask groups to make a specific choice, groups all work on the same problem, and work on their decisions simultaneously

4. Peer evaluation in which students submit evaluations of their peers to the instructor, and these are submitted mid-term and at the end of the term.
