Independent Learning Centers

     Finally, independent learning centers will be maintained to promote cooperative learning, flexible grouping, skills reinforcement, and enrichment activities that can be programmed to suit the needs of the learners and the theme of the unit. Independent work can be added to the Portfolio Assessment to demonstrate motivation and initiative toward self-learning, which is one important goal of this program. Also, individual growth can be monitored and compared with the criteria referenced teacher-made classroom tests and skills assessments. Last, the learning centers will give students a chance to make choices in their own learning. Five basic Learning Centers for Writing, Reading, Listening,  Drama & Speaking and Computers will be discussed.
