However, initial attempts to adapt onsite teaching methods to onlinecourses achieved little more than copying onsite practices into the digital environment.

In essence, active learning requires doing meaningful learning activities in groups underthe guidance of an informed and experienced teacher. As stated by Christensen et al (1), “To teachis to engage students in learning.” The main point is that engaging students in learning isprincipally the responsibility of the teacher, who becomes less an imparter of knowledge andmore a designer and a facilitator of learning experiences and opportunities. In other words, thereal challenge in college teaching today is not covering the material for the students, but ratheruncovering the
