This book gives an insight into strategies to promote positive learning, spark enthusiasm and illicit critical thinking in teaching Discrete Structures to undergraduate students. In the new millennium, education has seen major changes, shifting the focus of learning activities in the classroom from the teacher to the student. This book presents a collection of contextualized lesson plans, experiences and self-reflections to explore possibilities for enhancing the quality and versatility of teaching Discrete Structures. A multitude of classroom activities are undertaken, directed towards problem-based learning, cooperative learning and inductive learning. The student-centered methods have shown to be more effective than traditional lecture-based teaching. Students have demonstrated better depth of understanding of course material, increased short-term mastery, long-term retention, acquisition of critical thinking and a higher level of confidence in their knowledge and skills.
