Learner-Centered Approaches in Sustainable Medical Education

Chapter Authors: Hayriye Dilek AKDOĞAN

Pages: 133-148

In the 21st century, education models have evolved into a quite different dimension in accordance with the digital age. This dimension is a dimension that reveals this new perspective on education and brings lifelong sustainability with a wide variety of information from different channels. With this approach in education, the concept of learning has replaced the classical concept of teaching and the student has been put at the center of education. In this context, education programs have evolved from the traditional behaviorist approach to the learner-centered constructivist approach. In constructivism, accessing knowledge is a process that is at the center of the individual and regulated by his/her experiences. In this context, the content of learner-centered education programs has progressed towards the direction where traditional, classical narratives are abandoned, the learner is more active, problem solving skills are developed and group work is effective. In the learner-centered education approach, the learning process is considered as a complex process. However, it is thought that informing trainers about this system will facilitate the process. In this process, the trainer should prepare the training program with the role of facilitator and guide and draw the framework in this direction. In this constructivist model, the trainer is expected to be open to innovations, to have a digital and technical infrastructure and to be able to apply them . These changes in education have revealed the importance of training of trainers. In conclusion the importance of learner-centered education models in sustainable medical education and the superiority of their advantages over their disadvantages are obvious. It is very important for physician candidates to be well-equipped physicians. We believe that with this enriched medical education curriculum, physician candidates will be trained as better equipped and more self-confident physicians.
