Student Centred Learning

Abstract

In original usage, student-centric learning aims to develop learner autonomy and independence by putting responsibility for the learning path in the hands of students. Student-centric instruction focuses on skills and practices that enable lifelong learning and independent problem-solving. Student-centric learning puts students' interests first, acknowledging student voice as central to the learning experience. In a student-centric classroom, students choose what they will learn, how they will learn, and how they will assess their own learning. Student-centric learning requires students to be active, responsible participants in their own learning and with their own pace of learning. Usage of the term "student-centric learning" may also simply refer to educational mindsets or instructional methods that recognize individual differences in learner. In this sense, student-centric learning emphasizes each student's interests, abilities, and learning styles, placing the teacher as a facilitator of learning for individuals rather than for the class as a whole.
