Abstract

This chapter discusses active learning and its implementation for teaching. Although active learning is a general term in education, the focus of this chapter is on technological means/tools that can enable active learning. The means presented may be implemented in computer-mediated learning either by students operating a stand-alone local personal computer equipped with appropriate hardware and software or in both synchronous and asynchronous distance learning environments. More specifically, the current chapter discusses two technology-based means that can enable active learning—computerized feedback intervention and interactive animations.
