A WHOLE DIFFERENT WAY OF TEACHING HERE IN THE 21ST CENTURY

I taught for nearly 36 years and we were always the ones who knew everything.

I found this video that shows us how the education system has changed in Singapore as it seems to me very likely to be a good way.

You can handle more children in your class and they all have opinions that you can read.

Today this will be very difficult for me as I am not at all good with technology.

My grandchildren at the age of 6 years and 21 years know so much more than me.

It would be very difficult for them to understand me as they have all the information at their fingertips.

I am grateful that my last 30 years as principals did not have that problem.

I hope you enjoy and have a wonderful day from me here at the Wild Coast.

Hi methusalem,

thank you for your great post. I enjoy meeting the experienced colleagues in the teachers lounge. I learn a lot from them, specially about handling difficult situations. Somethimes I miss a positive attitude towards technology among them. They are so focused on the negative aspects.

Thank you, for spreading positivity about technology in learning and teaching. Keep up with the good work.

Thank you for your motivating reply.
