interactive learning
Hands-on knowledge acquisition
Interactive learning is an educational approach where students actively participate rather than passively receive information.
It emphasizes dialogue, hands-on activities, and immediate feedback—whether between student and teacher, among peers, or with digital tools and simulations.
The workshop used interactive learning techniques like role-playing and group problem-solving.
The term gained prominence with educational technology, where software responds dynamically to user input, but the underlying principle applies equally to classroom discussions and collaborative projects.
