Challenges with Student-Centered Learning

Classroom Set Up

The classroom must accommodate any direction students take the lesson.

Materials must be provided for lessons.

Students must be organized in groups

Traditional vs. Student Centered Balance

Lesson planning

Roles must be clearly defined.

Groups are mandatory in each lesson

The lesson plan needs to focus on providing a learning environment to meet the learning goals rather than procedures to present informaiton in a traditional way.

Students

Students need to properly use the new freedoms productively.

Students must learn to work well in groups.

Students need to be invested in their learning.

Student mindset must be altered to empower them to drive instruction.

Teachers

Material costs.

Teachers must be prepared to support students no matter which direction the students take the lesson.

Teachers can only take one step at a time to transition to a fully student-centered teaching approach.

Questioning and Guidance

Balance guiding students and providing space for them to figure it out themselves.

Ask questions to guide students

Role of the Teacher

Give up some control of the direction of the lesson.
