Many traditional models of education put the the learner in a passive role, as a recipient of knowledge. No wonder knowledge and skill retention is normally so low! Instead, NuPaths designs learning so that students are active participants. Research shows that active learning increases engagement and leads to much better retention of new knowledge.
Instructors in an active learning classroom spend less time behind the podium and more time consulting and leading group activities.
Students do more than just listen. You’ll read, write, discuss, solve problems and be engaged in your personalized learning.
And, employers will see the benefits of active learning. The nature of work today is more collaborative, technical and global. Organizations need employees who are flexible, collaborative, creative, and technical.
