This document discusses the key dimensions of learner-centered teaching: 1. The function of content is for students to build knowledge and engage with content by making meaning and solving real problems, not just absorbing information. 2. The role of the teacher is to facilitate student learning by providing guidance and opportunities for students to take agency over their own learning. 3. The responsibility for learning lies with the students, and teachers should teach students how to become self-directed learners who can learn independently. 4. Assessment should be integrated within the learning process and provide formative feedback to foster student improvement and mastery. - Download as a PDF or view online for free
