A learning center is a space set aside in the classroom that allows easy access to a variety of learning materials in an interesting and productive manner. Learning centers are usually designed to offer a variety of materials, designs, and media through which students can work by themselves or with others to operationalize the information learned in the classroom. Centers are designed to enhance the learning of concepts, skills, themes, or topics. 

Centers can be an excellent method for teaching students effectively. Working with children in a small group setting allows for more direct teaching and enhanced student response. Centers provide a less intimidating environment for the students and give the teacher the opportunity to focus on specific areas of study.
