What is "Active Learning"?

What is Traditional Lecturing?

What is Communication?

What is collaboration?

Active Learning

There is something more we can do to educate

students with enthusiasm and interest, rather than

students dreading to sit through another lecture.

Instead of old time lectures where only the teacher

speak and students listen.

Active learning is student-centered, an open setting

where students can feel the freedom to express what

they know and what they want to know more about,

and active learning revolves more on listening to the

student, not having the student just listen.

Professors should take the initiative to give students

the opportunity of full communication and voice in

the classroom.

Traditional Lecture

Traditional lectures are demonstrated as the

professor in front of the classroom educating

students the professors way. Lectures are teacher-

centered education. There are students who process

information differently, whether they understand right

away, or needs more depth of explaining.

The classroom has the same routine where the

professor obtains full control and students sit through

the class whether they understand or not. Lectures

tend to bore students as well and have them wander

off or daydream because there is no activity going,

they just have to sit, and listen.

Principles for Deeper Learning

Compelling Core Content

As instructors, teaching content because it is a state

or federal mandate is nonnegotiable, but how we

teach it is. Worksheets and multiple choice questions

serve a worthy purpose, but they should not be the

whole of the evaluation technique. Taking that core

content and applying it to a new task encourages

deeper learning.

Clear Communication

Clear communication is the foundation for all learning.

As an instructor, we should be encouraging our students

to ask questions, make connections and share what they

have learned with their peers. Students should be able

to question out loud, hypothesize and test out thoughts

and assumptions. An ongoing dialogue between

teachers and students is healthy

Encourage Collaboration

Teach students through group projects, presentations,

and performances that working with others elicits new

thoughts and ideas on a subject. Let the students see

you as a teacher working with other teachers to

present a months’ long unit on a theme, which you

then tie into a real-life problem to solve.

Problem Solving and Analytical Skills

By getting the child actively involved in their own

learning, the activity-based learning model

encourages students to be independent thinkers,

analyze the task at hand, think critically and solve

problems to come to the final learning. Being

involved in these tasks encourages the child to be

more inquisitive and develop their analytical and

problem-solving skills.

Collaborative Virtual Classrooms

Collaborative virtual classrooms make online

learning more engaging. Aside from the usual

audio-video conferencing and chat features,

virtual classrooms also provide synchronous and

asynchronous annotation, communication, and

resource sharing for facilitators and participants.

It’s a definite must-have for any e Learning!

Mind mapping / Brainstorming

These two are approaches that can also be classified

under active learning methods. Mind mapping and

brainstorming are staple methodologies for any

problem-solving activity.

In these sessions, learners

come up with ideas and post them on a board.

As a group, the students then select the best ones

and use those to come up with a solution. For these

methods, there are available apps that allow learners

to use their own device and collaborate with others

in coming up with a mind-map or idea tree.

Role Playing

Role playing is also another effective approach

founded on active learning methods. Role playing

simulates real-life situation that requires problem-

solving skills. More importantly, it is also a medium

for gauging actual performance.

Role playing activities can include job simulations

like customer interaction (facilitator plays the

customer, learner the agent) through the phones,

email, chat, or in some cases, virtual reality.

Data and Tools for Problem-solving

A combination of a scavenger hunt and role-playing

activity, this exercise is one of the more effective

active learning strategies for adults. The facilitator

assigns a case-study (preferably taken from common

customer scenarios) to a learner. The learner, in turn,

makes sense of the data and uses the available

resources to solve the case.

Game-based Learning

GBL is, arguably, the most fun among all the active

learning methods. Game-based learning, or

gamification, is turning a certain aspect of learning

(or business) into a game. There are available

learning apps that let you do this, but you can also

create your own! Just don’t forget to apply the three

elements of gamification – achievement, competition,

and fun – into the endeavor.

What Is Hybrid Learning in School? | Vibe

Learning by Teaching

In a nutshell, learning by teaching, means that you

allow learners to prepare and teach the lessons (or

part of them) to their fellow students. Although it may

look like the facilitator is taking a very hands-off

approach in this method, it actually involves a very

elaborate process where the facilitator is both

moderator and subject matter expert.

Do take note that learning by teaching does not

simply mean a presentation or a lecture presented

by the learners. In this particular approach, the

learners are the ones who are facilitating the session

by engaging with fellow students.

The facilitator ensures that the learning gets

processed correctly and also lends a hand to the

student-hosts. Webinars and online discussion

boards are the usual media used for this methodology.

The Jigsaw Technique

The Jigsaw Technique is another approach that fully

reaps the benefits of active participation and

collaborative learning. In this approach, learners are

given a “piece of the puzzle” that they need to solve

on their own. After this, they need to collaborate with

other learners to finally complete the puzzle.

This approach would be a good addition to role

playing and using data/tools to not only solve

bigger problems but also gives participants a

glimpse of the ‘bigger picture.’

It is a good exercise to let learners realize their

role in the bigger picture by doing both individual

and collaborative work and how those are all part

of a process.

The ‘Flipped Classroom’

The flipped classroom is a fairly new term in the

learning . Lessons are ‘flipped;’ meaning that

most of the work like reading and research are

all done outside of class. This goes in contrast to

the traditional approach where most of the class

time is used for lectures, and activities are assigned

as homework.

Flipping a classroom leaves more time for the

facilitator to implement active learning methods

during class time. This concept works on making

efficient use of class time with less (or no) lectures,

and more time for activities.

Advantages of active learning

There are a plethora of studies on the benefits of

active learning. Research has proven that there is

increased content knowledge for participants of the

approach. In addition, development of critical thinking

and problem-solving are two other benefits.

Creative thinking, collaborative, and interpersonal

skills also show great improvement when active

learning methods are implemented.
