All this leads to a shift in the paradigm, necessary at the micro level - in teaching, learning and assessment. Addressing bring changes in the role and responsibility of the teacher and student. The student centered learning involves changes in the role and responsibilities or the learners and students, in the program materials delivery and in the learning process itself.
