Week 1: Visions for teaching and learning

7 Moving forward

In this first week you have looked at how contemporary education policies tend to emphasise a ‘learner-centred’ approach, and what this might mean for classroom teaching. Many teachers are unfamiliar or unconfident with enacting an active, participatory approach to learning in their classrooms.

In Week 2 of this MOOC you consider how you, as a teacher educator, can give teachers experiences that help them to develop more learner-centred, participatory practices.

Now go to Week 2: Active learning in practice.
