Impact of Team-Based Learning on the Development of Critical Thinking Disposition in Entry-Level Master's Nursing Students.

Team-based learning (TBL) is an evidence-based teaching-learning strategy increasingly used in nursing education to improve student learning outcomes. Few studies have focused on its effects on the critical thinking disposition of second-degree nursing students enrolled in accelerated, entry-level master's programs. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of TBL on the critical thinking disposition of entry-level master's nursing students. Critical thinking disposition scores did not significantly improve, but students' confidence in reasoning skills and intellectual curiosity were strengthened, suggesting that TBL is an instructional strategy worth pursuing in entry-level master's nursing programs.
