7.Learner Centered

approach centers on
the belief that the
learners are the most

of the system (Busse
and Krause 2016).
The learners can

capable of sharing

The most significant
limitation of the
system is that the
system is messy as
different students can
get different kinds of

therefore the teacher
may face trouble in

8. Disciplinal
approach
This approach tends
to implicate that the
teachers will strictly
follow his or her
discipline and only
discuss things that
are related to that
discipline (Stage and
Manning 2015).
This approach tends
to limit the teacher in
discussing the
lessons within the
boundary of the
subject.
I do not follow this
approach in my
classroom.
