  • Challenges and opportunities in the implementation of active learning methods in Occupational Safety and Health training: A systematic literature review
    Publication . Rocha, Margarida Celestino; Rodrigues, Matilde Alexandra; Dores, Artemisa Rocha
    Active learning methods have gained increasing attention in the field of Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) training due to their potential to enhance learner engagement, knowledge retention, and practical skill development. However, to date, there is limited research that systematically evaluates the application and effectiveness of active learning methodologies in OHS training, particularly with regard to their impact on knowledge retention, behavioural change, and the practical transfer of learning to workplace safety practices. This review explores a range of active methodologies — such as problem based learning, project-based learning, simulations, storytelling, virtual reality, augmented reality and immersive virtual reality — with the aim of identifying their effectiveness, key benefits, and implementation challenges. A total of 22 peer-reviewed studies were examined and organised according to their aims, training methods, results, opportunities, and challenges. The findings suggest that immersive technologies and experiential approaches are increasingly adopted to address the limitations of traditional training methods. Despite their positive impact on motivation and learning outcomes, several obstacles remain, including high financial and technical demands and institutional resistance. This review provides relevant insights for professionals and decision-makers seeking to innovate OHS training practices and calls for further empirical research to support the broader application of active learning strategies in this context.
