Gazette » Changing Society: Why Teachers Need to Embrace Technology - 5 views
-
Most teachers still embrace a textbook based style of learning within the classroom. The student is forced to retain, recite, and regurgitate knowledge taught by the lecturer. In my humblest opinion, students are controlled to be mindless robots while the teacher becomes the controller of the hoard. There is no engagement of critical thinking or higher learning. The students are not required to think for themselves. Many teachers of this old school of thought are suppressing the promotion of learning and creativity. Students need active engagement. Technology links students to an exciting, innovative educational experience.

Still, and this may be true for many decades to come, most college and university classrooms are designed for teacher presentation; the shape of the room, the acoustical design, control of lighting, lack of sufficient technology in the room, the furniture, security, window treatment, and so on, the space itself screams lecture. Likewise, parent and incoming student expectations have the force of centuries of fixed models about what teaching and learning are supposed to be. Such cultural memes (like physical genes), so ingrained, change ever so slowly.
