Active Learning – Modern Learning Theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Most classic machine learning methods depend on the assumption that humans can annotate all the data available for training. However, many modern machine learning applications (including image and video classification, protein sequence classification, and speech processing) have massive amounts of unannotated or unlabeled data.

Designing Effective Simulation Games for Active Learning in Systems Engineering [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Simulation games have been an effective method of teaching, especially for Systems Engineering concepts. The hands-on activities facilitate active, experiential, and collaborative learning with fun elements.

A Survey on Deep Active Learning: Recent Advances and New Frontiers [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and Learning Systems
Active learning seeks to achieve strong performance with fewer training samples. It does this by iteratively asking an oracle to label newly selected samples in a human-in-the-loop manner.

Reinforcement learning or active inference? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This paper questions the need for reinforcement learning or control theory when optimising behaviour. We show that it is fairly simple to teach an agent complicated and adaptive behaviours using a free-energy formulation of perception.

Instructor strategies to aid implementation of active learning: a systematic literature review

open access: yesInternational Journal of STEM Education, 2021
Despite the evidence supporting the effectiveness of active learning in undergraduate STEM courses, the adoption of active learning has been slow. One barrier to adoption is instructors’ concerns about students’ affective and behavioral responses to ...

Gamification and active learning in higher education: is it possible to match digital society, academia and students' interests?

open access: yesInternational Journal of Educational Technology in Higher Education, 2021
This study aims to examine whether it is possible to match digital society, academia and students interests in higher education by testing to what extent the introduction of gamification into active learning setups affects the skills development demanded

What really impacts the use of active learning in undergraduate STEM education? Results from a national survey of chemistry, mathematics, and physics instructors

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Six common beliefs about the usage of active learning in introductory STEM courses are investigated using survey data from 3769 instructors. Three beliefs focus on contextual factors: class size, classroom setup, and teaching evaluations; three focus on ...
