ABSTRACT
Objective:
to analyze the readiness assurance step of the Team-Based Learning through the performance of Nursing students in the Individual Readiness Assurance Test – iRAT and Team Readiness Assurance Test – tRAT.
Method:
descriptive study of quantitative nature. Twenty-six fifth semester students of a university of northern Brazil participated. Data collection took place in October and November 2018 with questionnaires applied in five units. The analysis was descriptive, by questionnaire, question, team and student.
Results:
the team performance was superior, but not in all units. There are issues where students individually and in teams presented difficulties, suggesting intervening variables of pedagogical origin.
Conclusion:
the analysis by performance of students suggests failures in the readiness assurance. The study contributes by indicating possible pedagogical variables that can influence the success of this step of the Team-Based Learning.
