Abstract

Student-Centered Learning (SCL) is a way to motivate students to learn, which in this project is applied to STEM education at university level. This paper presents experiences with running a project based on a theory-driven approach to inspire change towards SCL in three Asian countries. The ultimate aim with the project is that the students develop relevant professional competencies in their STEM subjects.
