9 New Skills You Need To be a 21st Century Educator | Online Universities - 0 views

  • Blogging Teachers competent in WordPress, Blogger, Tumblr and other free, popular blogging platforms have an excellent (and paperless!) tool at their disposal
  • Social media: Social media doesn’t have to worm its way into assignments to prove itself educationally valuable. Sites such as Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn burst with teachers and other academic professionals chattering about ideas, strategies, resources and tools.

  • I saw a distinct parallel between the characteristics of great teaching and great leadership.
  • Give trust, gain trust. As soon as you show that you trust people to do great things, they are more likely to do them.

  • Let people build and share their strengths and interests.
  • We can learn much more from a group than we ever could from only one.  Do your best to bring people together and empower them to be leaders.
  • If you look at the list above, there should be no distinction between what falls under leadership or teaching; they clearly work in both areas.
