2. Emphasis on Active Learning: Moving beyond passive absorption, the course champions active learning strategies like project-based learning, inquiry-based learning, and collaborative tasks.
3.Importance of Feedback & Reflection: Effective pedagogy incorporates regular feedback loops and opportunities for students to reflect on their learning process.
4.Personalized Learning Paths: Recognizing diverse learning styles and needs, the course advocates for personalized learning experiences tailored to individual students.
5. Technology as a Tool: Technology is viewed as a powerful tool to enhance pedagogy, offering access to resources, facilitating collaboration, and enabling personalized learning.
