Active methodologies and educational mechanisms to overcome the pandemic period: an analysis through the literature

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic imposed unprecedented challenges on education, forcing  schools and institutions to reassess their pedagogical approaches. In this context,  active methodologies emerged as an effective strategy to maintain student  engagement and ensure the continuity of learning. These approaches place students  as protagonists in the educational process, promoting active participation and  collaboration. The literature highlights the importance of experiential learning and  dialogic education, concepts that emphasize the construction of knowledge through  interaction and debate, fundamental in times of social isolation. Furthermore, the  continuing education of educators is crucial for the successful implementation of active  methodologies. Training in digital tools and innovative strategies allows teachers to  adapt their teaching practices, making the most of the opportunities offered by the  virtual environment. In this sense, this research brings to the debate the correlation  between active methodologies and the educational mechanisms that were used to  overcome the pandemic period.
