Abstract
Abstract This team-based learning program is designed to supplement third-year medical student clerkships in obstetrics and gynecology. This session addresses primary objectives listed by the eighth edition of the Association of Professors of Gynecology and Obstetrics’ medical student educational objectives and is geared to prepare students for questions regarding pelvic relaxation, urinary incontinence, endometriosis, uterine leiomyomas, and menopause that will be encountered on medical licensure exams. The team-based learning format includes a readiness assurance test that is taken by individuals and as a team effort. This is followed by application exercises aimed at utilization of knowledge accumulated in preparation for the readiness exams. Students are required to prepare for the session ahead of time with a prereading. Educators must have a basic understanding of the team-based learning format to execute the module effectively.
