Teach Less, Learn More: A Paradigm Through Collaborative Learning in Science
Abstract
This chapter attempts to promote the use of collaborative learning as a strategy for teach less, learn more (TLLM) in science education. This does not mean that more traditional modes of teaching should be abandoned entirely in learning science. The idea is to provide a platform for learners to construct meaning through communication and comparison, where the learners are required to resolve different viewpoints that may surface along with their interactions and experiences with others. Overall, the aim is to move away from rote learning, repetitive tests, and teacher-centered learning towards more engaged learner-centered education by using practical collaborative approaches and strategies. The rationale and methods for the implementation of collaborative learning are also discussed. Such procedures were found to be useful to promote active and self-directed learners.
