Active learning increases student performance in science , engineering, and mathematics Scott Freemana,1, Sarah L. Eddya, Miles McDonougha, Michelle K. Smithb, Nnadozie Okoroafora, Hannah Jordta, and Mary Pat Wenderotha a Department of Biology, University of Washington, Seattle, WA 98195; and bSchool of Biology and Ecology, University of Maine, Orono, ME 04469. Edited* by Bruce Alberts, University of California, San Francisco, CA, and approved April 15, 2014 (received for review October 8, 2013). To test the hypothesis that lecturing maximizes learning and 225 studies in the published and unpublished literature. The Active course performance , we metaanalyzed 225 studies that reported learning interventions varied widely in intensity and implementa- data on examination scores or failure rates when comparing student tion, and included approaches as diverse as occasional group performance in undergraduate science , technology, engineer- problem-solving, worksheets or tutorials completed during clas
indicating that active learninghas a greater impact on student mastery of higher- versus lower-level cognitive skills (6–9), and the recognition that most concept inventories are designed to diagnose known misconceptions, in contrast to course examinations that emphasizecontent mastery or the ability to solve quantitative problems (10).
