Abstract Background: We implemented team learning, an instructional method that fosters small-group in evidence-based medicine (EBM) course. Our goal was to align methods with EBM practices. Description: Team learning provides alternative lectures large-group settings. It involves out-of-class preparation followed by in-class readiness assurance tests and group application activities. used the teach a 7-week course for 2nd-year students. evaluated using student performance, external...
Peer observation of teaching (PoT) is most commonly done as a way evaluating educators in lecture or small group teaching.

This study modelled economic impacts achieving ‘tobacco-free’ ambition (TFA) where, by 2035, less than 5% population smoke tobacco across all socioeconomic groups. Methods A non-linear multivariate regression model was fitted to cross-sectional smoking data create projections 2035. These were used predict future incidence costs 17 smoking-related diseases using...
