Abstract

The purpose of this action research is to transform the quality of teaching decisions and actions by adopting an active learning approach. The implementation was carried out as an eTwinning project for eight months in the 2021-2022 educational year with the first and second-grade 28 students in primary schools, aged six to nine, in Germany, Greece, and Turkey. Action research data collection techniques were used such as experiencing (by observing), enquiring (by asking), and examining (by using records of the poll questions answered by the pupils) and the results were reported with descriptive analysis. Learning was enriched with an emphasis on collaborative teaching and learning, active participation, and decision-making of learners. Learning methodologies such as inquiry-based, project-based, blended, and game-based learning increased learning motivation and engagement. Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) helped foster the development of a range of competencies. Digital technologies contributed to capturing the multiple dimensions of learner progression.
