Vol. 3 No. 1 (2023): Promoting Critical Thinking Skills through Active Learning Strategies in the Classroom

Critical thinking skills are increasingly being recognized as essential for success in the 21st century. Yet, many traditional teaching methods can foster passive learning, making it difficult for students to develop these skills. Active learning strategies, on the other hand, have been shown to effectively promote critical thinking by engaging students in the learning process. This issue of the Journal of Education examines the role of active learning strategies in promoting critical thinking, exploring various approaches and their impact on student learning outcomes. The issue also highlights the challenges of implementing active learning strategies and provide practical tips and resources for teachers looking to incorporate these methods into their classrooms.
