Description
 
In recent years, institutes of higher education have begun moving focus from teachers to student-centered learning. In her bestselling book Learner-Centered Teaching, Maryellen Weimer identified five practices tying teaching and curriculum to the process and objectives of learning rather than to the task of delivering content. Through rubrics consisting of self-assessments and worksheets based on each of Weimer's five practices, this is the first book to offer a concrete plan for transitioning a course from a teacher-centered to a learner-centered model. Written for traditional and online instructors, administrators, faculty developers, and instructional designers.
