The “Big Five” effective learning strategies

The Big Five effective learning strategies

The success in professional education is to apply effective learning strategies. These strategies consist of a variety of different methods that affect the learning behavior of the students. We distinguish five different strategies.

It is the “big five” – Direct and Indirect Instructions, Experimental and Collaborative Activities and Individual Study. Teaching strategies do not stand alone; they are a bundle of offers and pulses for better understanding and transference of learning content.

“Give the pupils something to do, not something to learn; and the doing is of such a nature as to demand thinking; learning naturally results.”

― John Dewey
