**Abstract**

Team-based learning, flipped classroom, and think-pair-share are active learning pedagogies used commonly in undergraduate medical education today. They are based on constructivist learning theory and are effective to use to actively teach foundational knowledge to medical students. They also help students work on team dynamics, critical thinking, and clinical knowledge application. These techniques can be employed without expensive technology or special training. Medical education was grossly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and the inability to assemble in person. These educational techniques all allow for enhanced and active remote learning. With the amplification of remote education delivery during the pandemic, it is easy to see how we can use these techniques to spread foundational medical education more equitably across the globe.
