Student active learning

Designing student-active learning is about creating coherence between learning outcome descriptions, learning activities and forms of assessment (Biggs, 1996). Learning activities can be both digital and analog. Resources in Canvas. 

Blended learning combines the benefits of face-to-face learning and online learning. This can be the use of online resources such as videos, apps and websites, which support students' learning. There may also be assignments that the students do digitally before, during or after the classroom teaching.

Flipped classroom (reverse teaching) is a widely used pedagogical model that facilitates in-depth learning. Before you meet, the students prepare through digital subject matter and any assignments. Then the students can use the time in the classroom to work in depth together, and you as a teacher will be a professional resource and supervisor for the students.

• Three videos from the University of Tromsø that explain how to create reverse teaching.
• Research article from HERDSA on flipped classroom.
• Video where Christine Lindstrøm tells how she has worked with reverse teaching in physics for teacher students at OsloMet.

OsloMet has four teaching rooms adapted for student active learning: PA124 in P46, PI455 in P35, L120 in P50 and FG020 in Falbes gate 5 (Active Learning Classroom - ALC room in TP). The rooms are well adapted for group work and student presentations in plenary and are especially suitable for various forms of reverse teaching. The rooms are reserved via the TP planner at the faculty.
