What are active methodologies?

Active methodologies, also known as active learning methods or strategies, are teaching and learning approaches that engage students in the learning process. These methods emphasize hands-on, experiential activities where students are actively involved in discussing, exploring, problem-solving, and constructing their own knowledge. Active methodologies typically move away from traditional, passive teaching methods where students simply receive information, encouraging them to become active participants in their own education. These approaches promote critical thinking, collaboration, creativity, and independent learning, as well as help foster deeper understanding and retention of information. Examples of active methodologies include group work, projects, experiments, simulations, debates, case studies, and role-plays.
