Teacher-Centered

Vs. Student-Centered

Teacher-Centered

  • Less concerned with helping students think critically
  • More concerned with helping the students replicate the teacher's way of thinking

Student-Centered

  • More concerned with LEARNING what the students NEED to UNDERSTAND about a concept to APPLY that understanding to other concepts
  • Giving students the opportunity to THINK critically and potentially come to different conclusions
