Gen Z StudentsCurrently, the universities are dominated by the
Generation Z or the digital natives. They are known to be addicted
to the Internet (20%), play video

The Idea
-
Student Centered Learning proposed for teaching in the early
2010sencouraged the diversity of teaching styles. SCL is the most
versatile andpopular term back term. Current popular teaching
terms, the many typesof ….gogy and ……gogies are not yet in
existence.
Student Centered Learning
-
Student Centered Learning (SCL) is an“environment that allows
learners to takesome real control over their educationalexperience
and encourages them to makeimportant choices about what and howthey
will learn” (Doyle, 2008).
A well-implemented SCL that promotesstudent involvement in the
learningprocess, collaborative work, and out-of-class component
(Singhal, 2017).
Student Centered Learning
-
❖ Active learning❖ Making key decisions through negotiations❖
Increasing responsibility and accountability❖ Increasing sense of
autonomy in learner❖ Mutual respect within learner teacher
relationship❖ Full responsibility on learner for his learning❖
Involvement and participation becomes a necessity in
learning❖ Techer becomes facilitator and resource person❖

The idea was to create an intense student-centered
learningexperience, which is “not giving any lectures at all,
instead empowerstudents to create their own learning
experiences”.
TEACHER CENTERED STUDENT CENTERED
The Idea
-
The biggest challenge was to give students total control of
theirlearning in the class and not giving any lectures. In
addition, I had tofully trust the students to be able to create and
direct their ownlearning experience.
TEACHER CENTERED STUDENT CENTERED
The Idea
-
❖No lectures during class throughout the semester! ❖Students
learn on their own!
❖Students design and develop their own activities. ❖Students
organize and participate in the activities during class.
TEACHER CENTERED STUDENT CENTERED
The Idea
-
Without any lectures, if you give your students total control of
learning and they conduct all activities in
class, what would be your most concern?

❖ Can students design and develop theactivities on time?
❖ Will the students read before class?❖ Will they cheat in the
activities?❖ Will the students be able to answer
questions in written exams?❖ Are you sure you want to implement
this
initiative throughout the course?❖ Will there be failures?
My concerns?

The Approach
-
Lecturer Students
❖The objective of the transformational initiative is empowering
students tocreate their own learning environment during class time.
It is hypothesizedthat students can create their own learning
environment when given theopportunity and freedom.
❖“I believe they are creative, innovative and self-motivated
when they dothings they like”.
Set your intention and build trust
21
-
❖Introduce and propose to your students the teaching style
(TWL).❖Let them decide the teaching style they prefer.❖Seek an
agreement with your students about what you intend to work out
with them.❖Set out the rules and regulations, objectives of the
method.❖Create groups, elect leaders and plan out the topics
together.

The student’s learning experience will be enhanced, when
theunderstanding of their knowledge based on blended learning
(online) willbe challenged/tested during class activities .
Blended Learning + Flipped Classroom
-
Games provide situated experiences in which players are immersed
incomplex problem-solving tasks (Squire et al., 2005). Malone &
Lepper(1987) demonstrated that games could increase motivation and
are,therefore, an essential feature of the lives of students. Many
educatorsinclude games in learning settings and have transferred
learner involvementand energy from games to educational activities
(Chen et al., 2015).
Gamification
-
In the entire course, during class with no lecture given, the
studentsengaged among themselves and learn through peer learning
(Peeragogy).Peeragogy is an educational practice in which students
engaged with otherstudents to achieve educational goals (O'Donnell
& King, 1999).Gholamhosein et al. (2018) reported that
peer-learning programpromoted learning based on the
facilitator-based examination.

Conclusion
-
In this initiative, students fully own and control their
learning process.Students decide, design and develop activities for
themselves to learn duringclass. Students experience fun learning
activities during class, and are still ableto obtain good academic
achievements in the course, even without formallectures.
-
All the student’s ideas in the design and development of the
learningactivities can be documented, refined, reorganized and
restructured intoan assortment of many gamification learning
activities that can beconducted during future classes.
-
These immersive gamified activities boost the learning
experienceduring class in a flipped classroom setting. These
innovations can alsocomplement and work together with e-learning
tools, which are nowpopular and used worldwide.
-
I have never seen such motivation, enthusiasm and total
immersiveengagement of students throughout my lecturing life. The
students were somotivated that they actually requested more time
allocation to conduct theiractivities. The engagement, motivation,
and positive experiences from the SCLactivities could not be
expressed by words. This is a timeless method.
