Conclusion

• LAMs has been successfully implemented in TBL in

Engineering, Science and Business.

• The features in LAMs such as branching allows laboratory

sessions to be conducted in alignment with the lessons

delivered to different groups of students at different periods of

time.

• Initial feedback from students shows that they enjoy TBL

session and peer-to-peer learning is occurring within the context

of LAMS-based TBL.

Acknowledgement

We will like to acknowledge Assoc Prof Tan Joo Seng for the help

in incorporating TBL with LAMs in his Business module and; Lee

Kong Chian School of Medicine staff, especially Gagnon Douglas

Paul, Gary Tham Weng Nung, Loe Wai Lit Alan and Lauren Hwang

for their kind support to enable this transfer of TBL using LAMs to

Renaissance Engineering Programme.
