I believe that five essential elements contribute to effective learning:
The teacher should serve as a guide, facilitating rather than dictating the learning journey.
Students need access to hands-on activities that allow them to explore concepts actively and experientially.
Learning should be driven by student choice and curiosity, empowering learners to pursue what genuinely interests them.
Students must have opportunities to practice skills in a safe and supportive environment, where mistakes are seen as part of the learning process.
Technology should be meaningfully integrated into the learning experience, enhancing engagement, accessibility, and innovation.
