I partially agree with Mrs. Hines. So many teachers lose their passion for teaching and the reason why they wanted to be a teacher. I think every teacher could learn different aspects from their students. Therefore, not only could a teacher be the teacher but the students could as well. It takes a teacher being creative and understanding to make a child want to learn because every child is different and learns differently. It is our job as the teacher to create ways of helping them learn and enjoy learning.
It is our job as teachers to find ways where children can explore and discover for themselves. Technology helps them achieve this and it also encourages them to learn new information that will allow them to advance in the world of technology we have today. Although technology helps the student to advance the teacher is what makes the difference. The teacher should use effective methods and be willing to make changes for certain groups of children so that they will benefit from it. If there is an effective teacher the student could look back and see the impact that they made on their life.

Interesting comments. How do you think this applies to college students? Or does it?
ReplyDeleteYes because collage students begin to lose their focus on what is important. They could learn a thing or two from the younger generation.
