Team-Based Learning (TBL) is an effective learning model utilized in education to address the concerns of student active learning, participation, critical thinking and teamwork. However, faculty members must invest significant time in preparing TBL sessions, creating appropriate material and assessments, preparing paper answer sheets for group tests, and managing the logistics of student groups.
We have designed, developed and implemented a novel TBL online system at our institution by integrating the standard TBL process into a customized IT solution. The objective of this research is to identify important items in the requirements analysis based on sound pedagogy, describe the developed system while highlighting benefits and obstacles faced, and gauge user feedback of the system.
The system reduces the burden on faculty by guiding in the preparation of assessments, randomizing students into groups containing students from all academic levels, allowing students to take the individual and group tests efficiently and with instant grading, providing a mechanism for answering questions in the group test in such a way that indicates to students that their answer is incorrect and then allowing them to continue discussion until they reach the correct answer and then grade the question appropriately, allowing facilitator and students to view the progress of each group in the group exams in real-time on a projected screen, and giving an immediate indication on which questions are performing poorly so that immediate discussion and feedback can occur.
The system has demonstrated its value in enhancing the learning experience for medical students and has received positive feedback from both facilitators and students. By continuing to innovate, TBL has the potential to play an even greater role in the education and assessment processes of medical professionals.
基于团队的学习（TBL）是一种在教育中使用的有效学习模式，用于解决学生主动学习、参与、批判性思维和团队合作等问题。然而，教师必须投入大量时间来准备TBL课程、创建合适的材料和评估、为小组测试准备纸质答卷以及管理学生小组的后勤工作。
我们通过将标准的TBL流程集成到定制的IT解决方案中，在我们的机构设计、开发并实施了一个新颖的TBL在线系统。本研究的目的是基于合理的教学法确定需求分析中的重要项目，描述所开发的系统，同时突出面临的益处和障碍，并评估系统的用户反馈。
该系统通过以下方式减轻了教师的负担：在准备评估时提供指导，将学生随机分组，使每个小组包含来自所有学术水平的学生，允许学生高效地进行个人和小组测试并即时评分，提供一种在小组测试中回答问题的机制，以向学生表明他们的答案不正确，然后允许他们继续讨论，直到得出正确答案并相应地对问题进行评分，允许主持人和学生在投影屏幕上实时查看小组考试中每个小组的进展情况，并立即指出哪些问题表现不佳，以便立即进行讨论和反馈。
该系统已证明其在提升医学生学习体验方面的价值，并得到了主持人和学生的积极反馈。通过持续创新，TBL有潜力在医学专业人员的教育和评估过程中发挥更大的作用。
