A STUDY ON THE NEED FOR TRANSITION FROM TEACHER CENTERED LEARNING TO STUDENT CENTERED LEARNING

Vivekananth. P

Abstract :

Student–centered learning is the most effective method used to impart knowledge to the learners. This paper describes and compares the different types of student–centered approaches with their effectiveness to the teacher–centered method. Ideally, the paper reflects different studies with mixed results pertaining to these two approaches to learning and teaching. The teacher–centered is found to be very effective in primary schools where the learners have not developed higher order cognitive skills. More importantly, student–centered methods provide emotional and social value to the learners as well as improving creativity and reasoning ability in secondary education
