A

Active Learning

A teaching method that engages learners directly in the learning process through activities and discussions, rather than passive listening. Great active learning gives the learning the opportunity to try out learning objectives, and this approach informs every design at knackit.io


Adaptive Learning

Technology-based learning systems that adapt to the needs of each learner, providing customized resources and activities.


Andragogy

The method and practice of teaching adult learners, focusing on their needs and experiences. At knackit.io, professional adults are our primary audience, and everything is geared to them.


Assessment

The process of evaluating a learner's understanding and skills through various methods like quizzes, tests, and observations. Assessment drives the active learning and feedback processes at knackit.io, but don't worry, we go well beyond silly quizes into real-world scenarios and application.


Asynchronous Learning

Learning that does not occur in real-time, allowing learners to access materials and complete work at their own pace. Books were probably the first asynchronous resource, they've been succeeded by videos, quizzes, scenarios, and interactive modules.
