Abstract
Through this chapter there is reflection on using active learning strategies for agricultural education in the Arab world. There are difficulties with utilizing specific active learning strategies that encourage student learning and achieve important graduate attributes. Changing teacher and faculty perceptions about learning strategies and focusing on students' higher order thinking requires a lot of training, orientation, and mind shifting. Learning through specific active learning techniques, such as vocational, simulation, case studies, and using technology, supports student learning. It is particularly important to use instructional ways that encourage deep learning and analysis with agricultural problems and deficits. Professional development and hands-on learning changes perceptions of teachers through agricultural education in the Arab world. Many aspects relevant to using active learning in agricultural education perfectly in Arab world countries are clarified.
