14 Learner Centered Psychological Principles (my ideas about it).
Cognitive and Metacognitive Factors
1. Nature of the Learning Process – Learning is an active process where students
construct meaning based on their experiences. Teachers should provide hands- on and inquiry-based activities. 2. Goals of the Learning Process – Students learn best when they have clear, meaningful goals. Setting specific and achievable learning objectives keeps students motivated. 3. Construction of Knowledge – Learners build new knowledge by connecting it with what they already know. Activating prior knowledge before introducing new topics is essential. 4. Strategic Thinking – Teaching students how to think critically and solve problems improves learning. Incorporating metacognitive strategies helps students become independent learners. 5. Thinking about Thinking (Metacognition) – Encouraging students to reflect on their own learning process helps them monitor their understanding and adjust strategies when needed. 6. Context of Learning – Learning occurs best in real-world contexts. Teachers should use relevant examples and real-life applications to make learning more meaningful.
Motivational and Affective Factors
7. Motivational and Emotional Influences on Learning – A positive emotional
environment enhances motivation. Encouraging students and recognizing their efforts boost their confidence. 8. Intrinsic Motivation to Learn – Students are more engaged when they find personal meaning in their learning. Teachers should connect lessons to students' interests and aspirations. 9. Effects of Motivation on Effort – Effort is influenced by how students perceive their ability to succeed. Growth mindset strategies, like "The Power of Yet," can encourage persistence. Developmental and Social Factors
10. Developmental Influences on Learning – Teaching strategies should be
appropriate for students’ developmental levels. Lessons should be adapted to their cognitive, social, and emotional stages. 11. Social Influences on Learning – Collaborative learning and peer interactions can enhance understanding. Group activities, discussions, and cooperative learning should be encouraged.
Individual Differences Factors
12. Individual Differences in Learning – Students have unique learning styles,
strengths, and needs. Differentiated instruction ensures that all learners can succeed. 13. Learning and Diversity – Cultural and linguistic backgrounds affect learning. Inclusive education ensures that all students feel valued and supported.
14. 1Standards and Assessment – Assessment should be ongoing and used to
guide instruction. Providing constructive feedback helps students improve their learning.
