Do you know what the active pedagogy?
In fact, if you place your students in a problem-solving situation, in project-based learning, in discussion or debate, in collaborative or cooperative mode, in peer teaching, in simulation or in role-playing, you are doing active pedagogy. .
These active learning methods have in common that they place the student at the center of the learning process. Active pedagogy then takes advantage of real contexts, who have meaning for the student, and thus promotes its level of motivation and commitment facing the task. The aim is to promote sustainable learning long-term rather than straining short-term memory.
Easy to say, but is it that easy to do? The answer is yes, even in the context of distance education, thanks to five keys that allow you to support your students in their educational activation.
To dare active pedagogy, even remotely, I give you access to these keys that I detailed during sessions Facebook live, on the École branchée page.
1- Contextualization
How to develop authentic learning activities?
2- The collaboration
Concretely, how do I get my students to collaborate, even remotely?
3- Feedback
What impacts can feedback have on learner engagement and motivation?
4- The implication
What motivation levers can be used to involve students in their learning?
5- Interaction
How to stimulate interactions and maintain the link, even from a distance?
The main concern of teachers who switch remotely remains undoubtedly student engagement. Active pedagogy could then be the solution in this particular context. As a result, several digital tools are there to support young people in their active learning methods.
