Active learning emphasizes that students take responsibility for their own education, with teachers serving as mentors and facilitators. In both face-to-face and online environments, this approach can be implemented through various methods, including : small group discussions ( fostering collaboration and idea -sharing among students). Large group assignments ( encouraging teamwork and collective problem-solving). Reflective practices (allowing students to critically assess their learning and its real-world applications).
Base on my experiences active learning influences student engagement by shifting the focus from passive learning to active participation.
