Abstract

V originále

Learning centres are an extremely effective, flexible and versatile tool for autonomous, selfdirective and diversified learning. In learning centres, students make a number of independent decisions not only about the content of their learning but also its processes. Learning centres then offer manifold ways in which learners learn to regulate and take responsibility for their own learning. The teacher then has more capacity to monitor the class and provide support to the students individually. Learning centres are conventionally associated with preschool and elementary school education. This paper attempts to introduce various ways in which they can be administered in a university setting, share practical experience with implementing them into different learning contexts, and discuss their benefits.
