Flexibility: learner-centered?

I was thinking, there could be a relation between modern educational approaches and flexible learning. When a course is more flexible, students have the ability and influence to make key decisions about learning dimensions are made in advance by the instructor or institution (P. Fisser, personal communication, september 28, 2011). The learner has a range of options to choose. Maybe you can conclude, there is a movement from teacher-centered education to learner-centered education. Students can choose what to learn of how the assessment would be like. In practice when instructors use other educational approaches such as project-based learning, inquiry-learning or problem-based learning, the already choose what to learn, how to work on the assignment (together, in groups) and how many interaction they have with the instructor. In my opinion, flexible learning will be automatically achieved by using modern educational approaches.
