Whilst active learning approaches, including Team-Based Learning (TBL), are generally more supportive of the learner's needs during such transition, it remains elusive how different learning environments affect a learner's motivation, engagement, and perceived learning over a prolonged period. We leveraged on the Self-Determination Theory (SDT) and key learners' characteristics to explore the levels of student's engagement and perceived learning in two TBL learning environments, online and in-person, over an extended period. We hypothesize that students' self-reported perceptions of engagement and learning will be lower in online compared to in-person TBL classes.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>This is a mixed methods study with 49 preclinical graduate medical students completing the same questionnaire twice for each learning environment, online TBL and in-person TBL, over an eight-month period.
