Knowledge, Learning, Community
Like it or now (and to judge by some of the stuff out there, a lot of people don't like it), we are moving toward learner centered learning. This artice documents some of the major facets of that trend. Today's students "are polite, but also bewildered at first, later disappointed, and often finally disillusioned and dispirited by passive learning experiences." They would rather explore than hear, make choices than be directed. The "course' is no longer a fixed container; "today's students perceive their learning environments as boundless."
