In recent years, there is an incredible development in technology, which brought innovative changes in the educational sector. Active learning approaches are vital in teaching learning process such as content delivery, assessment, monitoring, etc. This paper discussed about active learning activities as simulation tool, buzz activity through animated video, and poster presentation. In addition to this, we checked students' performance and impact to gain knowledge by considering result analysis and course outcome attainment of two consecutive years for “computer organization” course. Individual students learning performance and learning interest increased due to implementation of different active learning tools during classes.
