Most of the scholarship on learner-centeredness is focused on individual classroom pedagogy, but this book takes learner-centeredness beyond the classroom and asks academic leaders to consider the broader implications of making their institutions fully learner-centered. Systemic change is needed, and curriculum is at the heart of what higher education does. To truly effect change, the curriculum needs to be examined and aligned with learner-centered practices. In this book the authors offer both design specifications for a learner-centered approach to curriculum as well as practical recommendations for implementation and assessment. Chapter 1: The Need for Learner Autonomy Chapter 2: Curriculum Design in the Instructional Paradigm Chapter 3: The Learner-Centered Curriculum Chapter 4: Model Curricula Chapter 5: Implementation Chapter 6: Faculty Development Chapter 7: Assessing the Learner-Centered Curriculum
