Towards Student Centerd Teaching:A New Paradigm

21st-century students are demanding an educational system that works for and with them. They are very curious, creative, eager to learn, and willing to try advance and new technologies. Therefore it is necessary to shift from teacher-centred teaching where teacher focused on what they are teaching, to student centered teaching where teacher focused on what students are learning.As a teacher we must act as facilitators who empower and learn from the students. The students should take more active roles as learners and that our roles change, too. This paper discusses Student centric teaching which provides an environment that engages the students allowing the construction of knowledge in a meaningful way by incorporating various interactive methods such as active learning, group learning, collaborative learning, experiential learning, etc. This paper provides more information about student centered teaching and offers some insights into how it is implemented for IT Technology Lab course at our Department of Information Technology, K. E Society's Rajarambapu Institute of Technology.
