THE LEARNERCENTERED CURRICULUMIf an institution is to be truly learnercentered, all processes and practices need to be learnercentered, and the curriculum is no exception.From the PrefaceThe LearnerCentered Curriculum is for educators and administrators who envision an educational environment that produces students who are creative and autonomous learners. By encouraging an appreciation and adoption of learnercentered practices, educators can transform their curricula to become more focused on the learner.The book presents a framework for curriculum design based on learnercentered principles while at the same time offering technical advice on implementation as well as the strategic use of assessment, technology, and physical spaces to support innovative design. The authors include several examples of existing curricula that illustrate their framework in practice. Throughout the book, they emphasize the need for assessment, both formative and summative, stressing the point that assessment is an effective driver of change. The book includes a wide variety of options both for individual classroom practice and for programmatic assessment.The LearnerCentered Curriculum explores the current technology and tools available to educators that can support learnercentered practices and foster autonomous learning and demonstrates how technology can assist in removing some of the obstacles to achieving a learnercentered design. In addition, the authors explain the importance of physical spaces in relation to learnercentered curricular design and show how to tie renovation to curricular implementation to foster incentive to innovate and provide a physical manifestation of learnercentered principles.
