A lot to think about



I'm sure some of the 'facts' or statistics used here are taken out of context and questionable, but it gives a teacher a lot to think about.

How can we best reach our students? The days of students coming to school to learn are over . . . if they ever were even here. Instead, learning needs to be digitalized and made relevant, applicable, and entertaining.

That's not an easy task. A lot of teachers will dig their heels in and refuse to change. But those teachers are losing the kids anyway and were never particularly effective anyway. However, those who want to get better will find ways to innovate and improve.
