Description | Surprisingly, while educational paradigms have been cast under the traditions of cognitivism, behaviorism, and constructivism, the humanistic approach to education has only rarely been recognized as forming the didactical baseline in technology enhanced learning. In this paper we illustrate and discuss the potentials of humanistic education by following the Person Centered Approach in one instance of a technology enhanced setting. The accompanying action research based study aims to provide educators with a realistic image of person centered learning in action and to inspire them in their own educational practice and research. |
