Active learning is defined as 'any type of instructional activity that engages students in learning, beyond listening, reading, and memorizing.' This can include various activities such as discussing challenging questions with classmates, responding to in-class prompts in writing, making predictions about experiments, or applying knowledge from readings to case studies. Active learning often involves collaboration among students, but it can also include individual reflective activities like quick-writes or real-time polling during lectures. It can be implemented in classes of any size, from small groups to large lecture halls, allowing for diverse engaging activities that foster student participation [7].
