Abstract

Traditionally, the Chinese educational system is shaped by teacher-centeredness, meaning that the teacher directs and controls the design of the overall educational objective and the educational process. However, in the past three decades, Chinese educational institutions have gradually made initiatives to transform their teachercentered educational approach into student-centered learning in order to enhance student learning motivation and learning outcome.
