Abstract: | Team based learning (TBL) is a co-operative learning method, increasingly used online within our digitalised society. The aim of this study is to better understand the factors influencing student satisfaction and engagement with online TBL. The study measures student satisfaction, accountability and preference for online TBL across three compulsory psychology undergraduate modules; PY1604 (Clinical Psychology), PY1608 (Employability in Psychology) and PY1702 (Academic Skills in Psychology).. Seventy-two psychology students enrolled at a UK university completed the TBL-SAI online survey, where they answered 33 statements relating to online TBL on a five-point Likert-type scale. It was found students were significantly more accountable in the TBL method for PY1608 and PY1604 and significantly less accountable for PY1702. It was also found that there was significantly higher satisfaction for PY1604 compared to both PY1702 and PY1608, as well as students attending significantly more PY1604 sessions than PY1702 and PY1608. Overall, there was no significant difference in preference for online TBL over online lectures when comparing the three modules. The findings support our hypothesis, that there would be differences across the three modules in terms of satisfaction, accountability and preference for online TBL. |
