Sablonniere, Taylor & Sadykova, (2009), further mentioned that in SCL the job of the teacher is more like a
facilitator than providing knowledge to the learners. Candella et al., (2006) and Immordino-Yang & Damasio,
(2007) added “The one-way transferring knowledge which was used before in many fields for the past generations
are not considered enough and adequate to prepare the learners and make them able to face the challenges in today
society, because in today’s modern and technological world learners do not have only have to get knowledge.
According to Meece (2003), we could be able to gain this to change the focus from transferring knowledge to
educating where we can provide opportunities so the learners will not be only passive but they will actively
participate in the process of knowledge.
Furthermore, Diekelman, Ironside and Tanner (2004) added that the teacher does not have to present knowledge
actively but he/she may be as a guide to create and monitor good opportunities and provide contexts where only
the learners are responsible to gain their aims and goals by themselves which are set by them as groups. A content-
heavy syllabus is needed to be shifted students centered syllabus since little room for the improving is left for
necessary skills for instance, a good order for students’ thinking, the skills how to make some decisions, some
other skills helpful to find the solutions for problems and how to assist self and peer or other group member.
According to Hill and Land (1997), this could be achieved in a better way by the learners centered pedagogy at
every level of education as well as in higher education. SCL approaches provide learners opportunities where they
can examine more complex problems where they use a wide range of resources and they are being able to improve
their ways and methods for finding the obstacles and find easily applied adjustments to the obstacles in a more
combined way.
As Tseng, Chiang and Hsu (2008) stated that there is needed much more time for learners to acquire and adopt
new methods and ways when they are using SCL for the first time as a teamwork and learn how to overcome the
problems they face. According to Carlisle & Ibbotson (2005), as learners change their style of learning from TCL
to SCL approach it therefore could be a challenging environment. According to Arco-Cobbah (2004), the higher
educational institutes normally practice in their teaching the TCL. But it is seen that only traditional methods are
not considered adequate enough where learner could be prepared for finding jobs as well as those challenges they
face in their jobs. One more approach which is known as SCL on is centered on the students and is seen to be
used by teachers in higher educational institutes and is considered to be adequate that can help to overcome this
problem.
Sadykova (2009) says that both approaches have differences of their own and adds that the TCL method has the
characteristics of predominant use of some traditional approaches used
