Active learning is an instructional approach that engages students in activities that require analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. This helps develop higher-order thinking skills. Examples of active learning include brainstorming, group problem-solving, debates, role-playing, and case studies. These activities aim to motivate students, encourage independent learning, and foster collaboration. Similarly, flipped learning shifts direct instruction to individual time outside of class, allowing class time to be used for hands-on activities and problem-solving with teacher guidance. The four pillars of flipped learning are flexible environment, learning culture, intentional content, and professional educator. While both approaches have benefits like increased student engagement, they also have disadvantages such as increased workload for teachers.

10. 3 Types of Interaction
1.Instructor to students
2.Student to student
3.Students with contents

11. Examples of Active Learning
1. Activities for lecture: Word picture, labelling diagram, exampling,
three point summary
2. Individual activities : role play, questioning, individual exercise
3. Group acitivities : brainstorm, group work, case studies, debate
4. Activities at the end of class : active review, the silent question

12. Activities and it’s purpose
1. Brainstorming : Start by introducing a topic and students are welcome to generate as muc
h ideas as possible. When inputs are given, there won’t be much judgment and critique ma
de. The students will generate ideas by asking question about the topic, then critically thin
k and make connections and associations with the past knowledge to come out with a list
of ideas.
2. Group problem solving : This method is used during or after a lecture. A problem will be p
resented based on the content and students are required to discuss in groups to solve the
problem. This will cultivate inquiry, collaboration and co-operation skills among the studen
ts.
3. Debates : Debates is best used to enhance persuasive, communicative, logical thinking skill
s and identify evidence to back up arguments. A topic will be given and two groups of de
baters will proceed with the debates. Thus, the debaters need to convince the judge that t
heir point is the best for the particular topic.
4. Role play : Role play often stimulate empathy, viewing from different angle, controlling one
self and cooperating with others. Students will indulge themselves deeply with the characte
r’s personality and feelings. This requires understanding and demonstrate the role to the a
udience .
5. Peer review : Students will be given a task to be completed. After completing, they will pas
s their assignments to their peers for review. During the reviewing phase, critical thinking, i
dentification of mistakes, self inquiry skills will be needed.

13. Activities and it’s purpose
6. Case studies : It provides opportunity for students to glean and have a firsthand knowledge
of he industry. These cases prompt the students to explore and test relevant theories. Besides,
they will analyse, articulate their view, listening and accepting others’ ideas and summarize to f
inally come to a consensus to solve the case.
7. Inquiry learning : Students are to investigate and discover concept for themselves. A questi
on, scenario or problem will be pose for students to observe, make hypotheses, collect eviden
ce and provide justification on explanation to come to a conclusion. Generally, it is a small scal
e investigation to solve the problems.
8. One minute paper : During or after a lecture, instructor may ask the students to write what
they have learned. It may be question, doubts, main points, critiques to make them learn more
about what they might or might not know. Instructor can clear the doubts by giving feedback
in the next class.
9. Jigsaw discussion : It is a technique where a topic is broken down into smaller interrelated p
ieces. Students are divided into group and each member is assigned to become an expert in a
topic. After they have become expert in their piece of puzzle, they are required to teach and s
hare with other team members from another group. Finally after all the members have finishe
d teaching, the puzzle is reassembled and by now everyone in the team know about every pie
ce of the puzzle or topic.
10. Simulations : A virtual learning environment is prepared to evoke and replicate the real wo
rld. Students experiment and immerse themselves in a safer environment. This provides them
with hands-on experience to prepare for the world.

15. What is it?
Flipped Learning is a pedagogical approach in which direct instruction moves
from the group learning space to the individual learning
space, and the resulting group space is transformed into a dynamic, interactive
learning environment where the educator guides students as they apply concep
ts and engage creatively in the subject matter.

23. Benefits and Disadvantages of Flipped
Learning
Benefits Disadvantages
Students have more control Hard for students with limited
internet access
Student centered learning It requires preparation and
trust
Lessons and contents are
stored and accessible at
anytime
Increase workload for teachers
in identifying and uploading
video lectures
More time for practice Time in front of screen
increases instead learning
from people and places
