Technology Bits THE CHANGING ROLE OF THE TEACHER

The changing role of the teacher is dynamic. The paradigm shift is enormous and requires to use of public relations, parent involvement, teacher transformation and administrative transformation. We have sought how to reach students since the advent of time. The value of igniting the spark in a student is immeasurable. How does this occur, when does this occur, and who lights the flame? The answer has remained elusive to educators. The changing role of the teacher requires adaptation and evolution by all stakeholders. Students arrive to us with very different characteristics than previous deccades/generations. We are charged with the ardent goal and proudly  accept the challenge.
Valuing the input of students into the equation is critical to developing the appropriate settings, resources, and content to convey the skills needed by our students to compete in a global economy and global educational platform.
