What are Active Learning Classrooms?
Active Learning Classrooms are spaces that are designed to support teaching and learning in an atmosphere conducive to engaging students actively in their own learning.
Active Learning Classrooms:
- Promote not only whole-class, but also group and one-to-one interactions;
- Allow students to work in a collaborative, supportive, and enriched environment;
- Allow students to engage with learning materials and each other; and
- Foster effective learning.
