Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q3 i? Three studies assessing learning interest found no significant difference between TBL and PBL groups (SMD = 0.01, 95% CI: -0.36–0.39). → Zhang Weilin 2024
Evidence¶
Zhang Weilin 2024¶
Zhang Weilin, Wei Jinsong, Guo Weixiong, Wang Zhongwei, Chen Siyuan. (2024). Comparing the effects of team-based and problem-based learning strategies in medical education: a systematic review. BMC Medical Education. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12909-024-05107-9
q3 · i? · quant-synthesis · r2
Meta-analysis of three studies assessing learning interest via questionnaire surveys, using a fixed-effects model because heterogeneity was not found (I2 = 37.7%, P = 0.201). The pooled "SMD = 0.01" indicates no detected difference between the methods.
"The results showed that there was no significant difference between the TBL and PBL groups in improving learning interest (SMD = 0.01, 95% CI: -0.36–0.39)"
