Aprendizagem ativa é um termo técnico para um conjunto de práticas pedagógicas que abordam a questão da aprendizagem pelos alunos sob uma perspectiva diferente das técnicas clássicas de aprendizagem, tais como aulas discursivas, onde espera-se que o professor "ensine" e o aluno "aprenda". Na aprendizagem ativa, entende-se que o aluno não deve ser meramente um "recebedor" de informações, mas deve se engajar de maneira ativa na aquisição do conhecimento, focando seus objetivos e indo atrás do conhecimento de maneira pró-ativa.

Assessment Reform Group on June 16, 2010 | updated October 2, 2012 The Assessment Reform Group (ARG) has been at the forefront of challenging thinking and practice in relation to all aspects of assessment, including assessment for learning. Its aim has been to ensure that assessment policy and practice at all levels takes account of relevant research evidence. In pursuit of this aim the main targets for the Group’s activity have been policy-makers in government and its agencies. It has also worked closely with teachers, teacher organisations and local authority staff to advance understanding of the roles, purposes and impacts of assessment. While its work has now finished, its publications continue to provide ideas and insights central to the development of assessment practice.

PrometheanPlanet I'm always on the lookout for good resources to help the teaching of science on the Interactive Whiteboard. Your whiteboard allows you to run simulations, play videos and demonstrate using animations. It can also provide you with a window on the world (and other worlds). Here are 10 of my favourites: 1. 2. 3. 4.Periodic Table of Videos : On this site, produced by the University of Nottingham, you will find videos of all the different elements of the periodic table. 5. 6. 7. 8.
