UNLOCKING ACTIVE LEARNING POTENTIAL IN INFORMATION AND ELECTRONICS SUBJECTS: A COMPREHENSIVE ASSESSMENT
Abstract
Active learning is an instructional approach that engages students in the learning process through participation and interaction. This study conducts a comprehensive assessment to determine the suitability and effectiveness of active learning strategies within the context of Information and Electronics subjects. By analyzing various active learning methods and their impact on student engagement and knowledge retention, this research aims to provide valuable insights for educators and curriculum developers in the field of Information and Electronics. The findings of this study underscore the potential benefits of incorporating active learning into these subjects, enhancing the overall learning experience for students.
