Abstract
- Team-based learning (TBL) is a non-traditional method of instruction that utilizes permanent teams working together to solve problems and make decisions. The authors extend the prior TBL criminal justice literature through a detailed explanation of the use of application-focused activities in the classroom. Specifically, application-focused activity examples demonstrate the versatility and practicality of TBL in the criminal justice classroom, highlighting their ability to foster critical thinking and communication skills among students. The authors conclude with a discussion of future directions for TBL in research and pedagogy in criminal justice and related disciplines.
