%X <B>OBJECTIVE: </B>To explore the application and effect of team-based learning (TBL) based on network platform in teaching surgical abdominal emergency.<BR><B>METHODS: </B>A total of 80 fourth-year medical students from our university's 5-year clinical medicine program were enrolled. They were randomly assigned to two groups: the control group (n = 40) used the online large class teaching method and the experimental group (n = 40) used the online TBL. The teaching effect of web-based TBL was evaluated by collecting the subjective evaluation of the experimental group and the objective test results of both groups through a questionnaire.<BR><B>RESULTS: </B>Online TBL was well-received by most students. More than 80% of them found the teaching method interesting, and more than 90% of them gave a high rating to the improvement of their learning ability with online TBL. The experimental group scored significantly higher than the control group in the objective tests (p < 0.05).<BR><B>CONCLUSIONS: </B>The network-based TBL is preferred by most students. TBL curricula are more conducive to medical student learning and engagement and have better learning outcomes.
