    Teacher-centered instruction is characterized by the teacher being the center of knowledge and in control of learning. Students passively receive information from the teacher, who acts as the sole supplier of knowledge through direct instruction and scripted lesson plans. Key characteristics include the teacher being the primary information giver and evaluator, with students viewed as empty vessels. While it keeps the classroom orderly, teacher-centered instruction is criticized for not developing students' communication, collaboration, and independent learning skills.

    In Teacher-Centered Instruction, students put all of their focus on the teacher. You talk,
    and the students exclusively listen. During activities, students work alone, and
    collaboration is discouraged.

    Teacher-Centered Instruction
    Characteristics
    1. The teacher is the center of knowledge and in charge of learning.
    2. Students are usually passively receiving information.
    3. The instructor’s role is to be primary information giver and primary evaluator.
    4. Students are viewed as “empty vessels” who passively receive knowledge from their
    teachers.
    5. Teachers and professors act as the sole supplier of knowledge, and under the direct
    instruction model, teachers often utilize systematic, scripted lesson plans.
    6. Teacher Centered Instruction is fairly low-tech, often relying on the use of textbooks
    and workbooks instead of computers
    7. Assessments are in many cases only carried out as summative and not formative
    evaluations and they rarely address qualitative issues of the learner’s progress.
