I enjoyed the examples of analytical and critical thinking.
I like engaging students in multiple ways in order to have them become active in the learning process.
Given the fast pace of the course I teach and its difficulty level, the active learning methods are necessary but will have to be very efficient. A lot of thought and preparation will be required.
Active learning can improve educational outcomes.
I learned that given specific expectations will allow the students to know the kind of responds that are desired.
great reminder of different techniques to keep the students engaged and learning for all
Active learning is ideal for students who are learning new concepts because it encourages and stimulates critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
As an instructor, I plan to create learning activities that stimulate active learning and participation during lecture and class discussions.
Active learning can be achieved from other sources such as the internet, library, reference materials, and other students. Successful active learning requires planning ahead and organized.
It's always best to make a class more interactive including group discussions, group activities, and include case studies which will enhance critical and analytical thinking.
Interaction always mentally stimulating, thought provoking and makes learning a more pleasurable experience.
From this module, I have learned the importance of incorporating some form of active learning into each class session.
Both analytical and critical thinking methods are important for active learning in students.
I enjoyed learning more about active learning and ways to engage students in the learning process through hands-on activities, discussions, problem-solving, and other interactive experiences. Active learning moves away from passive listening and encourages students to participate and take ownership of their learning actively.
Active learning involved critical thinking and analytical skills.
Active learning is much better than passive learning for most students.
I appreciate the 6 steps in planning an active learning strategy; in reflection, I realized I've missed a step, which can detract from the activity's effectiveness.
Learning activities can really engage student thinking.
Comment on Georgiana Bougher's post:
I have been using active learning including nursing case studies and group activities. This is an area that I want to further develop. I have found active learning to be very beneficial for the students and enjoyable for the instructor.
My goal is to incorporate active learning in the classroom rather than just pure lecture.
