A Reflection Using Learner-Centered Approach

I discovered the true essence of Learner-Centered principles. As it provides


adequate designs in emphasizing the needs, capabilities, perspectives,
talents and backgrounds of individual learners. It helps learners to develop their
knowledge and skills for their professional career. These principles will guide
teachers to be effective in relating to the needs of their students. The teacher,
moreover, needs to have a good relationship or connection with students, they can be
friends, playmates, and that makes the learning place more pleasant and fun. It also
encourages students to pay attention and actively participate in the activities.
One of these approach is the Constructivism Learning Theory. It is a learning
theory that on the surface appears to be the most sensible way to teach students
today in an educational atmosphere that wants our students to question, explore, and
develop understanding through the learner’s applying this information to themselves.
The real world, school application problem with this learning theory is the reluctance of
the teacher to let go of the controls of the class in order to allow this type of learning
atmosphere to take place in the classroom.
I learned that the learner-centered psychological principles are categorized into
four factor (1)cognitive and metacognitive (2) motivational and affective (3)
developmental and social (4) individual differences. Each principle provides
educators the opportunities to deliver the lesson effectively and promote student
motivation and learning. The nature and goal of the learning process indicates the
teachers intention which is to provide knowledge and enhance the capabilities of the
students, with that, the students are expected to meet the intention they
received from the teacher. Also, teachers guide students to set their goal and
help them to achieve it. Teachers are able to use different strategies where students
can easily understand the lesson. And always consider the factors affecting the
students' learning process, the differences and uniqueness of them.
I realized that as a future educator, we have many ways to advocate the
Learner-centered psychological principles. In order for me to become an effective
teaching educator, I need to apply the principles first to myself. Through these I can
help them to enhance their capabilities to understand my lesson easily. We must
ensure that they think critically and encourage them to have or apply higher order
thinking skills to relate lessons to real life situations. For them to be prepared for their
future professional career. Aside from that, we all know that the learning environment
has a significant impact on student learning. We should help them to deal with it. We
should open the door for them to view the real world and to be aware of the challenges
that they may encounter. And teach them to recognize individual differences and
respect each other.
