Relying solely on traditional lectures or dedicating an entire class session to the monotonous presentation of material through PowerPoint is often tedious and usually does not lead to the desired learning outcomes. Over the past few decades, various methods have been developed to increase the level of learning in the classroom, and almost all of them are based on student-centered learning or activating and involving students in the teaching and learning process. Active learning is anything in the classroom that engages students with the material being presented and enhances their learning.
