Action teaching is a style of instruction that aims to teach students about subject material while also contributing to the betterment of society. The approach represents an educational counterpart to action research, a method first developed by Kurt Lewin in the 1940s to address racial prejudice, anti-Semitism, and other societal problems through the integration of social science and social action. Proponents of action teaching argue that by allowing students to take action on social issues as part of the learning process, action teaching deepens learning, heightens student engagement, and provides students with a "scaffold" for future prosocial civic action.

  • Action teaching is a style of instruction that aims to teach students about subject material while also contributing to the betterment of society. The approach represents an educational counterpart to action research, a method first developed by Kurt Lewin in the 1940s to address racial prejudice, anti-Semitism, and other societal problems through the integration of social science and social action. Proponents of action teaching argue that by allowing students to take action on social issues as part of the learning process, action teaching deepens learning, heightens student engagement, and provides students with a "scaffold" for future prosocial civic action. Action teaching has been used in varied educational settings, including grade schools, high schools, colleges, universities, and online courses taken by student and post-graduate learners. Although action teaching was initially developed within the field of psychology, it later spread to other curricular areas such as business, law, and environmental science. The social issues that it addresses encompass diverse topics such as violence prevention, disaster relief, prejudice reduction, sustainable living, human health. animal protection, and the development of empathy and compassion.
