This was a discussion that occurred in class where we wanted to differentiate between the two main kinds of learning. It was established that one was transformative and one was simply transmission based. We were then asked for each group to come up with different words that would describe the two kinds of teaching, (ie. passive/active, static/kinetic and critical thinking and understanding/non-critical listening.
Coming up with different terms fosters further understanding of the two kinds of teaching. This could be done with our future students with many different subjects. It causes students to think more critically about the subject and explore the topic on several different levels.
