Team-Based Learning and Lecture-Based Learning: Comparison of Sudanese Medical Students' Performance.

Aim: Students' performance in TBL compared to LBL needs to be evaluated. This study aimed to compare students' performance in team-based learning and traditional lectures.

Methods: A total of 176 class 4 and 202 class 6 medical students from University of Bahri, Khartoum, Sudan, participated in the study during 2018.

Comparison in the quality of distractors in three and four options type of multiple choice questions.

Introduction: The number of distractors needed for high quality multiple choice questions (MCQs) will be determined by many factors. These include firstly whether English language is their mother tongue or a foreign language; secondly whether the instructors who construct the questions are experts or not; thirdly the time spent on constructing the options is also an important factor. It has been observed by Tarrant et al that more time is often spent on constructing questions than on tailoring sound, reliable, and valid distractors.
