This academic book focuses on scholarly research contextualising innovative learning and knowledge construction by applying active teaching–learning practices such as problem-based learning (PBL) and pedagogy of play (PoP) to enhance self-directed learning (SDL). In support of the rationale of this book, PBL and pedagogies of play (PoPs) are discussed in terms of SDL in some theoretical chapters, followed by several chapters reporting on authentic learning practices in various disciplines. This book focuses on practices where students develop SDL abilities to thrive in the 21st century by utilising the abovementioned strategies and contributing to essential skills for future demands. Moreover, this focus supports the aim of this book: Exploring the convergence of PBL, PoP and SDL within the school classroom and higher education (HE) contexts.
