Student-centered Learning, General Education, Private University, Manila, Behavioral,, Intellectual, EnvironmentalAbstract
Transitioning from the traditional pedagogical norm to student-centered learning (SCL) is crucial to achievethe desired outcome. This is to produce graduates equipped with soft skills ready to face the life and global challenges of the 21
st century. This study provided the first tranche of evidence how the desired outcomeshave been realized by the general education students through SCL. Opportunely, SCL was deemed tobeharbinger of fundamental skills like collaboration, critical thinking, creativity, cognitive and self-directedlearning, communication and digital literacy. In the light of positive results, SCL implementation has not reached its fullest efficiency more particularly in the environmental component to reap the best outcomes. Positive relationship findings between environmental, cognitive and behavioral component will provideavenue to hoist standard of SCL implementation. Hence, continuous exploration of other partakers, monitoring and quality improvement is recommended.
