If you’ve been following our blog for a while now, you’re probably familiar with some posts where we discuss educational methodologies that you can apply in the classroom. Previously, we’ve talked about flipped classroom<\/a>, visual thinking<\/a>, or Thinking-Based Learning<\/a>.

What is discovery learning?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Discovery learning is an educational methodology through which students acquire knowledge by themselves. Instead of following the traditional method of passively receiving information, students investigate and discover the concepts to be learned on their own.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With discovery learning, students are the main protagonists of the learning process, actively participating in it. This helps to gain a deeper understanding of the concepts, which is much more enduring. This type of learning encourages students’ curiosity as well as the development of experimentation and critical thinking skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When we talk about discovery learning, we are referring to participation in practical activities, research, or problem-solving<\/strong>. It involves engaging students actively in their learning, encouraging them to discover the meaning of the concepts themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
