Discover how this innovative use of technology allows educators to transport students into dynamic worlds that spark engagement and encourage active participation.
Machinima can serve as a powerful pedagogical tool that fosters active learning, critical thinking, and meaningful participation across diverse disciplines. When used as part of a multimodal learning approach, this technique nurtures an inclusive and student-centered educational experience.
