What are some dynamic approaches learners can use to stay engaged and absorb knowledge more effectively ?

Learning and innovation skills are required to prepared students for increasingly complex life and work environments in today's world. These skills include:
• Creativity and Innovation
• Critical Thinking and Problem Solving
• Communication
• Collaboration
Let’s discuss these skills

I am Alwesha a primary school teacher from Matiari Sindh, Pakistan. I have done M.A in English. Professionally I have done BEd. I am passionate about teaching and learning.
My favourite part of job is to engage my self with students and do hands on activities, getting out of the class and experience learning with pleasant environment.
In my spare time I used to spend time on mobile through scrolling social media apps and read news Articles

How do you use innovative use of social media in your classroom ?
How do you insure that social media use in your classroom supports students learning outcome ?
Share your experience

Teachers understand instructional planning, and short-term plans based upon knowledge of subject matter, students community, curriculum goals, and design purposeful learning experiences using diverse methods to engage all students, meet curriculum standards and employ a variety of developmentally appropriate strategies in order to promote critical thinking, problem solving and performance skills of all learners .

Absolutely agree! Student-led classrooms not only build confidence but also prepare students for real-world collaboration and problem solving and that make students more active and critical thinker. @Mariya-Rajpar

In my point of view grades should be replaced because they just shows number not students learning, capacity and creativity. Competency based learning show how much student know and can do and indeed portfolio shows their creativity in portfolio and progress over time. These methods are more student cantered, more meaningful to assess their learning and capabilities.that way students would be focused on learning not just getting marks and grades.

@Hendra Thank you so much, Hendra, for your kind and thoughtful feedback. I truly appreciate your words . You’re absolutely right implementing the flipped classroom approach does require extra effort and time , but seeing the students engaged and learning meaningfully makes it all worth it, and I loved this method Flipped classroom that changed the game more time, deeper learning, and stronger student connection.
I’m glad the activity inspired you in some way. We all learn from one another, and your encouragement motivates me to keep trying new things in the classroom. Wishing you continued success and joy in your own teaching journey as well! thanks

Dear @Nawres-Alabed
An innovative and engaging project! ‘Battle of the Emperors’ successfully brings ancient history to life through gamification, making learning fun and memorable. It’s clear this approach boosts student interest and understanding well done!”

@Izzeddin-Qasem Impressive work on developing such an inclusive initiative like Faseeh.your project shows a practical and inclusive approach to Arabic language learning. The combination of grammar, vocabulary, and poetry with interactive features makes the app useful for a variety of learners. The voice function is a valuable addition, especially in supporting visually impaired students. It’s a well-thought-out tool that addresses real classroom needs.

Dear @HAZAR0c50a82765 Today I voted for your project. Your work shows a thoughtful blend of traditional and digital art. It’s great to see students exploring both worlds creatively, especially with limited resources. The approach is practical and relevant to today’s learning environment.

@Ridafatima95 I completely agree with this. Gender discrimination affects both girls and boys, and it’s so important that schools create inclusive spaces where everyone feels equal and supported. We need to break these stereotypes and give every student the chance to grow and succeed.

@Moham323d135850 Thank you so much,for your kind and insightful feedback! I’m really glad you found the lesson effective and engaging for young learners.

In flipped classroom , I aimed to ensure that the content could stand on its own—so I created a easily understandable language and detailed PowerPoint that guides students step-by-step, allowing them to learn independently without constant teacher assistance. This makes the resource highly scalable, as it can easily be adapted and implemented across different schools and institutions.

I also incorporated hands-on classroom activities using real-life objects, which not only reinforces learning but makes the experience more tangible and memorable for the students.

Thanks again for your valuable feedback it truly motivates me to keep improving and sharing more accessible learning tools

@SOBIARANAM-IRFAN indeed!

@adelDgreat learning should always trump winning. These events are fantastic for sparking creativity and problem-solving in students, even as young as ten. They get to tackle real-world issues and dream up solutions. However, if we overemphasise winning, we miss the real value. Students need to understand that setbacks aren't failures, but chances to learn and improve. It's about fostering a healthy competitive spirit where the journey of exploration and development is more important than the trophy. The true success lies in the skills gained and the lessons learned along the way.

Dear @ZARA Gamification makes learning exciting and rewarding. My favourite method Turning lessons into levels. Learners earn points for completing tasks, badges for achievements, and move up a leaderboard for friendly competition. It keeps them motivated, focused, and coming back for more.
When learning feels like a game, students don’t just study they enjoy.
I played a Noun detective game Through the ‘Noun Detectives’ game, students became excited and fully engaged in learning! They loved taking turns as little detectives—picking objects, saying their names out loud, and confidently identifying whether it was a person, place, or thing the game was as I
Set up 3 labeled columns on the board or on a table:
• Person
• Place
• Thing
2. Prepare a box or basket filled with noun cards or real objects (like toy animals, mini props, or picture cards).
3. One by one, students come up as “Noun Detectives.”
4. Each detective:
• Picks an object or card.
• Says its name out loud (e.g., “This is a pencil!”). Says what type of noun it is: person, place, or thing and Places it into the correct column.
It Helps students practice identifying and classifying nouns in a hands-on, memorable way and it builds vocabulary, speaking confidence, and grammar awareness.
