Team-Based Learning in Bioethics Education: Creating a Successful Curriculum for Residents in an Era of "Curricular Squeeze".

Pediatric residents, despite a perception of "curricular squeeze" and lack of interest in ethics, were highly engaged and satisfied with a TBL-only-based bioethics curriculum. We were able to successfully adapt the TBL structure to the situational factors surrounding the rigors and unpredictable nature of clinical graduate education. We offer four "Lessons Learned" for creating and implementing TBL exercises in graduate medical education. TBL can be used in bioethics education successfully, not just for individual exercises, but also to create a comprehensive ethics curriculum.
