TASK 7

ROMEO CABRERA JR.

1. What do you think a fully learner-centered course would be like?


The term "learner-centered" is similar to a product's "user-centered" focus. If a
course is learner-centered, it means that when we design our course, we pay close
attention to our learners' needs, interests, and skills. In contrast to content-
centered course design, in which the teacher creates a list of topics and decides
how much time to devote to each, the heart of the learner-centered approach is to
determine first what students can and should learn in relation to this course, then
how to assess students' performance, and finally how such learning can be
facilitated. Learning experience design evolves from content-centered to learner-
centered instructional design.

2. A learning-centered approach to course design is complex and time consuming. Do you


think it is worth the trouble?
Outcome-based education (OBE) is a learner-centered learning philosophy that
focuses on student performance measurement (the outcomes). OBE is not a
teaching style or method in and of itself; rather, it is a principle for designing your
teaching in such a way that learning occurs and students achieve the desired
learning outcomes. As a result, in OBE, "what is learned" is more important than
"what is taught."
