Applying active teaching methods in university education

Abstract

This article examines active teaching methods in higher education, focusing on their benefits, challenges, and theoretical foundations. Approaches like project-based, collaborative, and problem-solving learning enhance students’ critical thinking, creativity, and teamwork skills. The study explores the pedagogical theories supporting these methods and offers practical recommendations to overcome the identified challenges. By implementing these strategies, higher education institutions can create more engaging and effective learning environments, ultimately improving educational outcomes and better preparing students for collaborative and innovative careers.
