Some of the similarities include: (i)involvement of students in teams, (ii) a project is developed, and (iii) the instructor has akey role in the process. The main difference between TBL and other instructional strategiesis the focus on cohesiveness and development of teamwork skills. In PBL, for example, thefocus is in solving a problem and developing problem-solving skills, while in TBL the finaloutcome is not as important as the process [19].
