Assessment: Teacher-centered or Learner-centered?

Title: Assessment: Teacher-centered or Learner-centered?
Author: Terri Langan

This exercise helped me realize that instructors and students learn together and that students have a part in assessing their own learning. So often the emphasis is on the teacher as the expert. In a true learner-centered environment both the teacher and the students can switch roles from learner to expert and back again. I will also take away from this survey the idea that teaching and assessing are intertwined. This will help when writing learning objectives so that I can design my course objectives to effectively measure student learning.
