Learner-Centric Education in Heterogeneous Learning Environments

Learner-centered education through appropriate methodologies will facilitate effective learning in higher educational institutions. Learners in any educational institute come from varied backgrounds, abilities, and various personal attributes that will affect the pace of learning. To achieve learner-centric education, instructors have to use appropriate methodologies to engage students actively in learning. Methodologies include individual and collaborative learning types. This paper focuses on active learning strategies and their impact on achieving learner-centric education. Strategies are used based on session outcomes and assessment plans to achieve the outcomes planned. The paper also discusses the strategies available for instructors to develop independent learning, interactive learning, and collaborative learning among students.
