Abstract

With or without pandemics, successful knowledge transfers and instilment of critical thinking in learners are strategic to teaching delivery. To revolutionize teaching practice and profession, the specific needs of every group of learners (such as gifted and talented, depressed, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder students, minority ethnic pupils, and low attaining) must be met. Therefore, a new paradigm that employs the right teaching styles for the right student at the right time should be adopted. A plethora of research has shown that enhanced understanding, retention, and critical thinking are better promoted in active learning strategies as compared to conventional passive learning. On the other hand, students' critical thinking is most effectively enhanced by instructional approaches that incorporate constructivist, active-learning, and student-centered philosophies, in addition to other concepts like biosocial, psychological, psychosocial, emotional, motivational, and sociocultural perspectives. The execution of such a holistic perspective would inevitably require concerted efforts from all relevant key players and stakeholders.
