During this module you will get acquainted with the key elements of a student-centered learning environment. We will discuss why this is an environment that inspires students to learn and what you as a teacher can do to create it. Through several cases we will also discuss the boundaries of your role as a teacher, and what referral options there are at this faculty, in cases like that.
