Detailed explanation-1: -A study reveals students prefer low-effort learning strategies-like listening to lectures-despite doing better with active learning. Students are often “poor judges” of their own learning, according to researchers in a study recently published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
Detailed explanation-2: -Challenge is the core of the growth mindset; without it, students don’t get the opportunities to take risks, learn to fail and figure out how to pick themselves up again. This “sense of progress” as Dweck calls it, is central to developing growth mindsets.
Detailed explanation-3: -Active engagement facilitates deep learning and encourages mistakes – i.e. those ‘wrong’ chords – and how to learn from those as well. The American philosopher, John Dewey, first popularized learning by doing. For Dewey, this meant a heavy emphasis on student engagement.
