Purpose: It aimed to find if written test results improved for advanced cardiac life support (ACLS) taught in flipped classroom/team-based Learning (FC/TBL) vs. lecture-based (LB) control in University of California-Irvine School of Medicine, USA.
Methods: Medical students took 2010 ACLS with FC/TBL (2015), compared to 3 classes in LB (2012-14) format. There were 27.5 hours of instruction for FC/TBL model (TBL 10.5, podcasts 9, small-group simulation 8 hours), and 20 (12 lecture, simulation 8 hours) in LB. TBL covered 13 cardiac cases; LB had none. Seven simulation cases and didactic content were the same by lecture (2012-14) or podcast (2015) as was testing: 50 multiple-choice questions (MCQ), 20 rhythm matchings, and 7 fill-in clinical cases.
Results: 354 students took the course (259 [73.1%] in LB in 2012-14, and 95 [26.9%] in FC/TBL in 2015). Two of 3 tests (MCQ and fill-in) improved for FC/TBL. Overall, median scores increased from 93.5% (IQR 90.6, 95.4) to 95.1% (92.8, 96.7, P=0.0001). For the fill-in test: 94.1% for LB (89.6, 97.2) to 96.6% for FC/TBL (92.4, 99.20 P=0.0001). For MC: 88% for LB (84, 92) to 90% for FC/TBL (86, 94, P=0.0002). For the rhythm test: median 100% for both formats. More students failed 1 of 3 tests with LB vs. FC/TBL (24.7% vs. 14.7%), and 2 or 3 components (8.1% vs. 3.2%, P=0.006). Conversely, 82.1% passed all 3 with FC/TBL vs. 67.2% with LB (difference 14.9%, 95% CI 4.8-24.0%).
Conclusion: A FC/TBL format for ACLS marginally improved written test results.

Background: The Flipped Classroom with Team-Based Learning (FC-TBL) approach has gained traction in medical education in recent years, yet a comprehensive assessment of its instructional efficacy remains limited. This study sought to elucidate the effectiveness of FC-TBL in molecular biology laboratory instruction and assess its influence on subsequent related courses' learning outcomes.
Methods: A total of 109 students were randomly assigned to either the traditional Lecture-Based Learning (LBL) group or the FC-TBL group.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the effectiveness of a new teaching strategy, flipped classroom combined with team-based learning (FC-TBL), for laboratory medicine students during online education due to COVID-19 restrictions.
- Two groups of students were compared: one using traditional lecture-based learning (LBL) and the other using the FC-TBL method, with assessments to measure their knowledge acquisition.
- Results showed that students in the FC-TBL group scored higher in quizzes and exams, and expressed greater satisfaction with the learning model, indicating it enhances motivation and self-directed learning in clinical laboratory immunology.

Background: Basic medical laboratory courses (BMLCs) play an essential role in medical education and offer several benefits to students. Although various student-centered and active learning strategies have been increasingly incorporated into medical education, their applications in BMLCs are limited. This paper aimed to explore the educational effects of a flipped classroom (FC) combined with team-based learning (TBL) strategy in BMLCs at Zhejiang University School of Medicine.
