Story
Help us revolutionise how people teach and learn
The Active Learning Network is a passionate community of educators, researchers, and innovators from around the world who believe that learning should be engaging, interactive, and transformative. We're working to move education beyond traditional lecture-based teaching toward dynamic approaches that get learners actively involved in their own learning journey.
What We Do
Our collaborative platform showcases cutting-edge active learning projects, research, and discussions taking place nationally and internationally. We connect educators who are passionate about creating meaningful learning experiences that develop critical thinking, emotional engagement, and hands-on understanding.
Active learning means learners don't just listen – they do. Instead of passively receiving information, students engage in activities that require them to produce observable evidence of their learning through discussion, problem-solving, analysis, and real-world application.
