Underprivileged students often face numerous challenges that hinder their educational development and academic success. Limited resources, low motivation, and lack of access to quality education are some of the factors that contribute to their learning disparities. This project proposal aims to address these issues by implementing active learning strategies specifically designed to engage underprivileged students, foster their participation, and enhance their overall learning experience.
Objectives:
The primary objectives of this project are as follows:
- To identify and understand the unique needs and challenges of underprivileged students in the targeted community.
- To develop a range of effective active learning strategies tailored to meet the needs of underprivileged students.
- To implement these strategies in educational institutions and community centers serving underprivileged students.
- To evaluate the impact of the active learning strategies on student engagement, motivation, and academic performance.
- To disseminate the project findings and share best practices with educational stakeholders and policymakers.
Methodology:
To achieve the aforementioned objectives, the project will follow the following methodology:
