Teacher-Centered & Student-Centered: By: Rexqal Anak Traval

This document compares teacher-centered and student-centered approaches to education. In a teacher-centered approach, the teacher controls all aspects of instruction while students listen and work alone. While this keeps classrooms orderly, it can be boring and prevent student expression. By contrast, in a student-centered approach students and teachers share focus through group work, collaboration, and student-directed learning. This fosters communication skills but classrooms may become noisy and difficult to manage as students work at different paces. Overall, the document outlines benefits and drawbacks of both teacher-focused and student-focused educational styles.

Teacher-centered

&
Student- centered
By: Rexqal anak Traval

Teacher- Centered
Teacher-centered means students put all of their
focus on the teacher. The teacher talks, while the
students exclusively listen. During activities,
students work alone, and collaboration is
discouraged.
It also means that a teacher controls what is
taught, when and under what conditions within a
classroom.

Good Effect
When education is teacher-centered, the classroom
remains orderly. Students are quiet, and the teacher
retains full control of the classroom and its activities.
Student learn to be independent and make their own
decisions.
Because the teacher directs all classroom activities,
they dont have to worry that students will miss an
important topic.

Bad Effect
When students work alone, they dont learn to
collaborate with other students, and communication
skills may suffer.
Teacher-centered instruction can get boring for
students. Their minds may wander, and they may
miss important facts.
Teacher-centered instruction doesnt allow students
to express themselves, ask questions and direct their
own learning.

Student-centered
Students and instructors share the focus. Instead of
listening to the teacher exclusively, students and
teachers interact equally.
Group work is encouraged, and students learn to
collaborate and communicate with one another.
Students exercise a substantial degree of
responsibility for what is taught, how it is learned,
and for movement within the classroom.

Good Effect
Students learn important communicative and
collaborative skills through group work.
Students learn to direct their own learning, ask
questions and complete tasks independently.
Students are more interested in learning activities
when they can interact with one another and
participate actively.

Bad Effect
Classrooms are often busy, noisy and chaotic.
Teachers must attempt to manage all students
activities at once, which can be difficult when students
are working on different stages of the same project.
Because the teacher doesnt deliver instruction to all
students at once, some students may miss important
facts.
Some students prefer to work alone, so group work can
become problematic.
