Active learning methods have gained prominence as effective alternatives
to traditional lecture-based instruction. These approaches emphasize student engagement,
interaction, and participation, fostering critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving
skills. This article explores various interactive learning methods, including problem-based
learning (PBL), peer teaching, gamification, flipped classrooms, and technology-enhanced
learning. It also discusses the theoretical foundations, benefits, challenges, and best
practices for implementation. By integrating active learning strategies into educational
settings, educators can create dynamic and effective learning environments that promote
deeper understanding and long-term knowledge retention.
