Action-Centered Learning

Action-Centered Learning (ACL) is an educational approach that emphasizes learning through active participation and real-world tasks. Instead of just listening or reading, learners engage in meaningful activities—such as problem-solving, projects, or practical exercises—related to the skills they need to develop. This method helps learners acquire knowledge more effectively by applying it directly, fostering deeper understanding, critical thinking, and confidence. It aligns learning closely with real-life situations, making the experience more relevant and memorable. ACL encourages a hands-on, participatory approach, enabling learners to develop competencies by doing, reflecting, and iterating.
