A New Story…

May 13, 2008 | 2 Comments

shift from teaching to learning can be difficult. Everyday I see teachers who see a difference in their students from ten years ago, who know that something has to change, who want to do the very best by their students, but absolutely struggle to get past their own narrative of teaching.It is a tremendous obstacle, one that I find myself even falling back into at times as I lead my university courses, but is absolutely critical that we continue to shift from students as content consumers to students as content producers.

Need more convincing? Reluctant staff?

Have them watch this.

See if there are some new conversations starting…

    This inspiring video has now been shared with many francophone edubloggers from here (NB, QC, ON, +) and abroad (Europe, Africa). Thanks Jeff!
