Hi Ally:
For me, student centered put the focus of the class on the individual needs of students, trying to find what it takes to get my message across. I have to be willing to bend my curriculum some if needed, and for some, that's a hard thing to do. Some curriculum is very set and organized with little room for modification. Still, with a creative touch, both the curriculum and student needs are bbeing met. That's being student centered.
Regards, Barry
