Are you sinking or swimming?


As a teacher who started teaching in the 70's, and is still teaching in 2016, I have seen many changes in many areas of education, some exhilarating, others exciting, a few game changers- but unfortunately not all changes have been for the better, nor is every teacher ready to embrace!

However, I must say that I find teaching these days  for me is much more of a facilitating role than in the past and it is also imperative to me that my learning is ongoing everyday, and at every opportunity.

 I love learning and enjoy the many opportunities that are available these days to connect- to learn -to reflect- and to collaborate with other educators around the globe.

Are you enjoying teaching these days? Are you feeling too pressured? How are you coping with all the change? Does participating in social media fill you with dread?

I found this article below and just had to share it. It is reflects my own beliefs and understandings of being a 21C learner and teacher so well.
