Active Learning: Guidelines for Best Practice in the 21st century

Abstract

The world situation in the 21^st century is changing rapidly in all aspects, especially technological changes and innovations. Learning new things is essential for adjusting to the future world. Active learning is “reducing time study and increasing time learning” in which learners have a greater role in learning, knowledge, skills, morals, and ethics and can adapt to society appropriately. In this regard, the approach of active learning management is applied to develop systematic and concrete thinking in the form of interactive learning in learning together such as learning, building knowledge, hands-on practice, and exchanging ideas both inside and outside the classroom to restructure to increase learning time and organize teaching activities at all levels both inside and outside the classroom or online to fit the context of the learners and can be further developed to have learning achievement in determining the duration of the learning process at all levels. Moreover, this approach encourages students to develop advanced thinking processes through the process of thinking, analyzing, synthesizing, creating, and understanding situations so that learners can adapt themselves to future changes in the world. Importantly, knowledge can be applied and improved the quality of life of oneself and society.

It can be said that the guidelines for best practices in the 21^st century through active learning are the design of an instructional system for teachers to expand their knowledge by allowing learners to present their interests through methods or the design of a procedural instructional system: determining what the learner must do, planning, implementation, and reflection of knowledge under thinking, analysis, problem-solving, and participation. Learners will have better experiences and learning achievements.
