Learner Centered Principles

There are several ways to create a learner-centered classroom. Teachers should allow student choice, use open-ended questions, engage in explicit instruction, and encourage collaboration, reflection, and student leadership over learning activities. However, students may resist learner-centered approaches if they prefer a more traditional teaching style or don't see the relevance of certain activities. Effective learner-centered teaching focuses on individual student needs and abilities, and facilitates active, collaborative learning through methods like discussions, discovery-based lessons, and self-assessment of progress.
