Psychology of learning, Educational psychology 

As a subject, Facilitating Learner-Centered Teaching deals with the fundamental principles, processes, and practices that are anchored on learner-centeredness and other educational psychologies, as they apply to facilitate the delivery of teaching and learning. This book strictly follows this description. Hence, each lesson highlights not only the educational psychologies upon which teaching-learning principles are anchored, but also the practical applications of such psychological theories in the let Century classrooms. The implications of these theories are likewise underscored.

This book addresses multi-standards for teacher education institutions. For instance, it is aligned to the Philippine Professional Standards for Teachers (PPST), primarily targeting domains 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 under the Beginning Teacher Indicators. It also aids in realizing the level 6 descriptors of the Philippine Qualifications Framework (PQF). Moreover, this book has widened its ambit by focusing on the ASEAN context of teaching, as an offshoot of the ASEAN integration. It primarily follows the tenets of Outcomes-Based Education, as stipulated in the CMO 46, series of 2012.

The complementation of the standards mentioned above is seen in all parts of each lesson. Thus, this book is heavy on content but written in the most understandable manner. Teaching implications, applications, and examples are expounded in this textbook so that pre-service teachers can easily see the bridge of the theoretical side and the practical context applied to the let Century classrooms. The level of independence in this textbook addresses the PQF descriptor, but this material also promotes collaboration and communication with other learners. These features can be seen in the activities and tasks in this textbook.

With seven chapters, this textbook carefully unpacked the generic course description from the latest Policies, Standards, and Guidelines (PSGs) of Teacher Education courses (CMOs 74, 75, and 76, series of 2017). These chapters are as follows:

1. Learner-Centered Psychological Principles
2. Metacognition: Thinking about Thinking
3. Cognitive Learning Theories
4. Behavioral Learning Theories
5. Constructivist Learning Theories
6. Psychosocial, Psychosexual, and Humanist Theories of Learning
