Active Learning methods classification Active learning methods can be classified as: Methods that facilitate concepts and ideas understanding . They build on students’ previous experience, develop communication and decision-making skills, and focus on developing an active attitude: discussion, debate, role-play, etc. Methods that stimulate thinking and creativity. They urge students to search and develop solutions for various problems, to engage in critical thinking and to make judgments, to compare and analyze given situations: case studies, problem solving, practice, etc. Methods that teach students to work productively with their peers. These methods develop collaboration and mutual help skills: jigsaw puzzle, the coffee shop, small group projects, etc. Which method do you prefer ? Why ?
