10 Essential Characteristics of a 21st Century Educator
I couldn't agree more with the following statements, which summarise thge main ideas of the text:
"We also have more access to information and ideas, so we can do better. If you know better, you have to do better".
"Do our students feel valued when they come to school? Do we seek to simply engage them in content, or do we seek to empower them to create?"
"You could have been an amazing educator 10 years ago, but if you have changed nothing since then, you could become irrelevant".
"If we create a culture where every teacher believes they need to improve, not because they are not good enough but because they can be even better, there is no limit to what we can achieve.” —Dylan Wiliam
“We do not learn from experience, we learn from reflecting on experience.” John Dewey
"Remember…innovation is probably not in your curriculum, but neither are worksheets".
“If history were taught in the form of stories, it would never be forgotten.” ― Rudyard Kipling
“I have come to believe that a great teacher is a great artist and that there are as few as there are any other great artists. Teaching might even be the greatest of the arts since the medium is the human mind and spirit.” ― John Steinbeck
