Glossary
4 Active learning refers to a number of approaches to teaching and learning which
involve learners doing more than passively listening to a teacher.
4 Collaborative learning A philosophy, not just a classroom technique. In all
situations where people come together in groups, it suggests a way of dealing
with people which respects and highlights individual group members’ abilities and
contributions.
4 Critical thinking Ability to question information, to analyse and synthesise
information from a number of sources in order to develop understanding.
4 Differentiation The practice of making lessons different to accommodate the
different learners in a single classroom.
4 Modelling combines the principles of direct instruction with the constructivist view
of learning. The teacher facilitates learning by setting the learning goals and
directly demonstrates the skill or concept being learnt.

Active learning
Learning from own experiences:
• Allows learners to experiment, construct
meaning and develop understanding
• Relates new knowledge to existing
knowledge
• Making mistakes makes us check and
refine our understanding
• Results in deeper learning Picture F
• Changes attitudes
Collaborative learning

Structured group work:


• Improves interpersonal and
communication skills
• Improves acquisition of information
and higher-level thinking skills
• Promotes positive interdependence
– ‘we succeed together’ Picture B

• Can break down barriers between

skills
• Improves confidence and motivation

task by allowing them to search for
information and find their own tools
• Allows opportunities for learning outside
the classroom
Modelling
An expert giving an example whilst
explaining their accompanying
thought processes:

and expert thinking simultaneously
• Breaks a task into steps, allowing
learners to become increasingly
independent
• Stimulates reflection on the
processes
