| Résumé : |
Interest in active learning on college campuses has grown dramatically in recent years. While no one sees traditional classroom practices ending, active learning has become a sought-after mode of instruction that is reshaping the way students learn and teachers teach. The push behind this change comes from active learning's potential to improve student success. Active learning can help students absorb and retain course material better than passive learning. Instead of simply memorizing what they read or reiterating what the teacher says, students think about, analyze, and synthesize the course material deeply. As with any promising but disruptive change to established norms, making active learning work efficiently can be problematic. Instructors have to know how to restructure their lectures to allow for more frequent interaction. Students need to be shown how to respond and participate in this new learning dynamic. |
