Abstract
Activity-based teaching is based on the notion that students are active learners rather than passive recipients of information. Therefore, this study was conducted to find out how students in higher educational institutions perceive the use of activity-based teaching methods. A sample of 212 students from various private and government institutions was taken using non-probability sampling methods. It was found that students had a positive perception regarding activity-based teaching and they considered it a beneficial tool for all-round development of the learner. It was also observed that there was no significant difference in the perception of males and females regarding activity-based teaching.
