The document discusses active learning, which engages students in the learning process through meaningful activities that require thinking, as opposed to passive lecturing. It provides principles of active learning, including making the learning purposeful, reflective, negotiated, critical, complex, situation-driven, and engaging. Examples of active learning tasks are given, such as discussions, debates, role plays, and simulations. The use of technology and ICT tools can also enhance active learning. Implications are that active learning enhances motivation, caters to different learning styles, nurtures critical thinking, and increases student autonomy, though it demands more from teachers.
