What is "active learning"?
Active learning is an instructional approach that encourages students to actively participate in the learning process rather than passively receiving information. Activities such as group discussions, hands-on projects, problem-solving tasks, and peer teaching help students engage more deeply with the material. This approach improves critical thinking, retention, and the ability to apply knowledge in real-world situations.
Examples
