Contextual Learning

Contextual learning is an approach to learning that emphasizes the importance of understanding information and skills within a specific context or real-world setting. It recognizes that learning is enhanced when learners can relate and apply knowledge to practical situations. Contextual learning promotes active engagement, problem-solving, and critical thinking by providing learners with relevant and meaningful experiences. It goes beyond rote memorization and focuses on the integration of knowledge and skills into authentic tasks and scenarios. By connecting learning to real-life contexts, contextual learning helps learners develop a deeper understanding, make connections, and transfer their knowledge and skills to new situations effectively.
