7. Team Based Learning

Team-Based Learning (TBL) is an instructional strategy designed to enhance collaborative learning and critical thinking skills among students in the medical field. It's particularly valuable in the second year of medical school when students are building on foundational knowledge and preparing for clinical rotations. 

It was first introduced in the business school environment by Dr Larry Michaelsen. 

The concept is based around pedagogy and flipped classroom approach.
