Active Learning, an introduction

Years upon years of reaearch and classroom practice have shown that students learn best when part of the learnng process. Such approaches have different flavours and thus different names but share the same philosophical underpinning. Learning must be active, especially in the Early and Primary Years.

Join us as we review this approach, and some of the common branches of the Active Learning family tree. This session will be particularly useful for new and prospective Cambridge Primary, High Scope, PYP and Reggio Emilia teachers.
