Kaplowitz, a retired librarian at UCLA who offers workshops in active learning, assessment, expected learning outcomes, instructional planning, and learner-centered teaching, explores the fundamentals of learner-centered teaching for information literacy instructors in academic, public, and school library settings. She describes the basics of the approach; its components of collaboration, participation, and shared responsibility; how to identify it; its evolution; research from education, psychology, and the neurosciences that support its principles; various methods and assessments for using learner-centered teaching in information literacy instruction and how it improves the effectiveness of teaching; and applications of principles in face-to-face and online learner-centered experiences as well as blended experiences, with vignettes showing real librarians in all types of settings.
