Hi Joshua:
Great! Student centered does focus on the individuality of the students vs relying on a canned, fixed curriculum that students are forced to listen to.
I compare that to student enthusiastically anticipating class because they feel challenged, are not put down for having the courage to speak up and guess if unsure, and allowing their creative side have a say in thier learning.
How nice when learning is viewed as fun, exciting, interesting and enjoyable. A little grows into more. Competence breeds confidence which breed more competence, logarthmically excelling into fuller potential and understanding. Yeah!!
