John Tagg

John Tagg is an educational scholar best known for his critique of traditional higher education models. He argues that universities often focus on transmitting knowledge in a one-way manner, emphasizing lectures and fixed curricula. Instead, he advocates for a more active, student-centered approach where learners engage deeply with content, develop critical thinking, and participate actively in their education. His ideas challenge institutions to rethink their methods to better prepare students for real-world challenges by fostering deeper understanding and practical skills.
