The Power Shift: From Teachers to Learners

A stand-out idea from this material is the shift in educational power dynamics—moving from teacher-centered instruction to learner-driven experiences. Traditionally, education placed teachers at the center as the sole knowledge providers, but today, students are becoming co-creators of their own learning journeys.

With the rise of digital tools, flipped classrooms, and inquiry-based learning, students now have more autonomy, making education more interactive and personalised. This shift challenges educators to become facilitators of knowledge rather than gatekeepers, guiding students to think critically, collaborate, and take ownership of their learning.
