Data were analyzed using descriptive indices and Mann&ndash;Whitney test at the significance level of 0.05. &nbsp; Results: In this study, there was a significant difference between the two training groups in terms of the mean satisfaction score (p<0.001). There was a significant difference between the two groups in terms of the mean score of individual test (p<0.001). There was also a significant difference between the Team-Based Learning method and conventional method in the end-of-semester exam&rsquo; scores (p<0.001). &nbsp; Conclusion: According to the results of this study, use of team-based Learning method has been more successful compared to the traditional method in increasing students&rsquo; satisfaction, and the level of learning achieved by this method was higher based on the students&rsquo; scores. &nbsp;
