Learning-Centered Learning
This book is written for everyone who is interested in learners and the learning process. The purpose of this book is to articulate a 21st-Century philosophical learning construct called Learning-Centered Learning. This new construct builds on the ideas and works of others, while laying a foundation to improve lifelong learning environments for all. The philosophical construct of Learning-Centered Learning is built around five philosophical learning assumptions. These five learning assumptions view the learning process as multidimensional, accommodating individual learning-style characteristics, creating intrinsic motivation, and giving all learners expanded control and responsibility over their own learning. The late 1990's produced a concern for a shift toward more Learning-Centered Learning environments. This book will help clarify and amplify the current concern and focus on "learner-centered" and "learning-centered" learning. The book gives practitioners the needed "theory into practice" strategies needed to improve learning environments and also gives the academic audience the philosophical foundation to implement change. The book includes "assumptions into practice" strategies, personal insights and examples of real life experiences with personal anecdotes. The hope is that this book will promote a new vision and understanding about Learning-Centered Learning.
