Passive vs Active Learning
Think about the previous lesson (passive learning) .
Speak with a partner:
• What are the disadvantages of learning a
language this way?
• How could you have students learn the same
content actively?
What is active learning?
“Learning is not a spectator sport. Students … must
talk about what they are learning, … relate it to past
experiences, apply it to their daily lives. They must
make what they learn part of themselves.”
(Chickering and Gamson, 1987, p. 3)
Characteristics of Active
Learning
1. More than passive listening
2. Activities (e.g. reading, discussing, writing)
3. Emphasis on developing student skills
4. Exploration of attitudes and values
5. Increased motivation
6. Higher order thinking (analysis, synthesis,
evaluation)

Bonwell & Eison, 1991)
