This systematic review attempts to highlight multiple technologies used to promote active learning in the classroom. This systematic study highlights the current findings in various technologies used to promote active leaning as well as the methods used by researchers to evaluate the aim of this study. The limitations of past related studies and future directions for research were being further discussed.
