Description Entry-level DPT students, who were enrolled in either one of two 3-credit patient/client management courses (i.e., Basic Skills and Cardiopulmonary) over two academic years (2012 and 2013), participated in this study. Of the 132 students in these courses, 115 completed the questionnaire (87% response rate). There were 85 first-year students from the Basic Skills course (43 first year students in 2012 and 42 in 2013) and 30 second-year students from the Cardiopulmonary course (2012). All participants experienced TBL for the first time in their DPT curriculum.
The Student Perceptions of TBL scale is a 15-item instrument with two subscales: “preference for TBL” (8 items) and “preference for teamwork” (7 items). Each item was rated on a 5-point Likert-type scale: strongly disagree = -2, disagree = -1, neutral = 0, agree = 1, and strongly agree = 2, with a higher positive score indicating a more favourable perception toward TBL and teamwork.
