What is Student Centered Learning?
In a student centered classroom the instruction command changes from
“Do-As-I-Say” to “Lets See How We Can Do This” where the solutions are
brought forward together and not just by the teacher. Allowing students
to share and have a voice in what, how and why of the classroom
activities give them a sense of responsibility and authority over their
learning which again is a good thing. Student-centered classrooms
include students in planning, implementation, and assessments. Involving
the learners in these decisions will place more work on them, which can
be a good thing.

Children who feel closer to nature do better in exams
He(Dr Miles Richardson)is quick to insist that what is being measured is not how much time
children spend in nature, but the quality of their connection with it.
“It’s that feeling of having a relationship to the wider ecology –
enjoying it, and finding wonder and awe. An emotional experience in the
natural world,” he said.
