Active Learning Strategy

The objective of this research is to investigate an intervention-based active learning strategy incorporating the principles of cognitive psychology to enhance student learning in an undergraduate engineering mathematics course. In this strategy, the classroom was completely flipped, i.e., the students were assigned weekly reading assignments and had to take a quiz before joining the classroom. Inside the classroom, the lectures were replaced with group-problem solving sessions. Specifically, students were divided into small groups where they collectively solved worksheets containing several problems. By design, the worksheets integrated the key principles of cognitive science in learning that are conducive to long term retention of the topics, namely, reinforcement, spacing and instant feedback. Subsequently, the students were given take-home practice problem sets to master the concepts. On comparing the student learning outcomes from this strategy with the outcomes from the traditional lecturing approach, it was found that the students indulging in the carefully designed active learning environment performed better. It can be concluded that the improved student learning and retention can be attributed to the combination of active learning and the effective intervention strategy employed in the course

Active Learning Strategy

This journal discusses the urgency of a conducive learning environment in encouraging students to learn actively. A conducive school learning environment is closely related to the quality of student learning. It is realized that a conducive class can prevent students from boredom, boredom and psychological fatigue, while another conducive class conducts motivation and endurance in learning. In an active learning environment, students are not burdened individually in solving problems encountered in learning, but they can ask each other and discuss so that the burden of learning for them did not happen. With this active learning strategy is expected to grow and develop all the potential that they have so that in the end can optimize their learning results. Therefore, in the learning process of teachers play a role as mentors. Teachers should try to enliven and motivate students to create a conducive interaction process in the learning process in the classroom. In an active learning process it occurs a dialogue that interactions between students with students, students with teachers or students with other learning resources.

The subjects of this study were 40 students of fifth grade. Data collection techniques used are tests, observation and documentation. Data is processed with qualitative and quantitative descriptive analysis. Data in the form of observations of student activities and teacher activities during the learning process are analyzed qualitatively, and data on learning outcomes of class V students are analyzed quantitatively. The results of the study were used to see the problems that occurred in the school. This is because students are still less active and lack of interaction that occurs in the classroom both between students and teachers, and students and students in the learning process. So that student learning outcomes are still low. Based on the results of research and data analysis conducted shows that the level of student learning outcomes is quite optimal. Based on the individual minimum completeness criteria (KKM) agreed upon, each student must obtain a score of ≥75. The fifth grade student learning outcomes referred to above show that in the initial implementation of teaching activities before the test showed (pre test) the average value of fifth grade students was 63.88 for all subjects. In the teaching implementation process with the implementation of Active Learning Strategy type Everyone is a Teacher Here (ETH) and carried out after the test (post test) showed the average value of fifth grade students increased to 79.86 or above the defined Minimum Examination Criteria (KKM). This shows an increase in learning outcomes of fifth grade students of SD Inpres BTN Pemda Makassar City

Active Learning Strategy

In mathematics learning, active participation of students and interaction between students and teachers is a very important thing to get good learning outcomes. Based on the results of initial interviews concluded that still encountered some obstacles in teaching and learning activities. Among them the level of students' understanding of the taught material is still lacking, the interest and motivation to learn the mathematics of students is still low, the students tend to be passive in learning, do not want to ask the teacher. Even to ask friends was reluctant because students who are smart do not want to share with friends. So on this occasion, put forward a learning that is active learning strategy of sharing type of knowledge actively. The purpose of this research is to know how student activity in learning mathematics by using active learning strategy active type of knowledge sharing and to know whether student learning result of mathematics with Using active learning strategies active type of knowledge sharing is better than the result of learning mathematics students without using active learning strategies active type of knowledge sharing. The type of research is experimental research. The design used is Randomized Control Group Only Design. The result of this study is the result of student learning in the cognitive domain obtained through the test of learning achieves the percentage of completeness 86.36%, student activity as a whole is implemented and tends to increase in every meeting. Analysis of final test result data is done using t-test. After t test for hypothesis testing, thount = 2.69, ttable = 1.68, it turns out thount > ttable so that H0 is rejected, thus the result of mathematics learning in students using Active Knowledge Sharing Active Knowledge strategy is better than result Learning of students without using Active Learning Strategy Active Knowledge Sharing type.

Abstract Background Developing students’ generic capabilities is a major goal of university education as it can help to equip students with life-long learning skills and promote holistic personal development. However, traditional didactic teaching has not been very successful in achieving this aim. Kember and Leung’s Teaching and Learning Model suggests an interactive learning environment has a strong impact on developing students’ generic capabilities. Metacognitive awareness is also known to be related to generic capability development. This study aimed to assess changes on the development of generic capabilities and metacognitive awareness after the introduction of active learning strategy among nursing students. Methods This study adopted a quasi-experimental single group, matched pre- and posttest design. It was conducted in a school of nursing at a university in Hong Kong. Active learning approaches included the flipped classroom (an emphasis on pre-reading) and enhanced lectures (the breaking down of a long lecture into several mini-lectures and supplemented by interactive learning activities) were introduced in a foundational nursing course. The Capabilities Subscale of the Student Engagement Questionnaire and the Metacognitive Awareness Inventory were administered to two hundred students at the start (T0) and at the end of the course (T1). A paired t-test was performed to examine the changes in general capabilities and metacognitive awareness between T0 and T1. Results A total of 139 paired pre- and post-study responses (69.5 %) were received. Significant improvements were observed in the critical thinking (p < 0.001), creative thinking (p = 0.03), problem-solving (p < 0.001) and communication skills (p = 0.04) with the implementation of active learning. Significant changes were also observed in knowledge of cognition (p < 0.001) and regulation of cognition (p < 0.001) in the metacognitive awareness scales. Conclusions Active learning is a novel and effective teaching approach that can be applied in the nursing education field. It has great potential to enhance students’ development of generic capabilities and metacognitive awareness.
