Abstract Higher education is undergoing a profound transformation, driven by the need to meet the challenges of a rapidly evolving global society. Traditional teaching methods, often characterized by passive learning and rote memorization, are increasingly being scrutinized for their inability to foster critical thinking, creativity, and adaptability—skills essential for thriving in the 21st century. In response, transformative teaching methods have emerged as a paradigm shift in educational practices, promising to revolutionize how knowledge is imparted, acquired, and applied. These methods emphasize active engagement, collaborative learning, and the integration of real-world challenges into the academic experience, aiming to cultivate not just intellectual growth but also personal and social development. The implications of transformative teaching methods extend beyond the classroom. By fostering critical thinking, emotional intelligence, and a commitment to lifelong learning, these approaches prepare students to navigate and contribute meaningfully to a world characterized by uncertainty and rapid change. Furthermore, transformative teaching aligns with the broader mission of higher education to not only impart knowledge but also inspire innovation, ethical leadership, and societal impact. In this paper, an attempt has been made to explore the various dimensions of transformative teaching methods in higher education, examining their theoretical foundations, practical applications, and measurable outcomes. The introduction of transformative teaching heralds a new era in education—one where learning is not just a transfer of knowledge but a catalyst for holistic growth and social progress.
