| description | Abstract This team-based learning module instructs obstetrics and gynecology clerkship students on the diagnosis and initial management of pregnancy complications. This module is ideally suited for an active learning curriculum in which students are accustomed to preparing ahead of time and working through questions and cases in the classroom. The advantages of this module are that less faculty preparation time is required, students are actively engaged in application of the material, and no traditional lecturing is required. Students are assessed using multiple-choices questions and their group interactions are assessed by their peers. This module can be scaled to any size group greater than a minimum of 10 since students form groups of five to seven for the exercise. We feel team-based learning enables students to be more active learners during the OB/GYN clerkship than what we previously used, which was a PowerPoint-driven didactic. We have worked hard during our 6-week clerkship to create a series of active learning sessions to “flip the classroom.” We hope this method will deliver material effectively and utilize the precious time we spend with students to work on clinical reasoning skills and the nuances of clinical care. This overall has been a rewarding experience for students, the facilitator and the content expert. |
