Educators absolutely must be driven to learn in order to teach effectively in the 21st Century.It is no longer acceptable to teach only from a textbook, to rely on the same worksheets an methods year after year without at least questioning them and researching why they are the best resource available. There is simply too much new information, too many new strategies, and new learning available to us to ignore the implications it may have for students in our class.

Not many teachers would consider themselves digital natives, but we must understand enough about digitalcontent and how it is used to effectively operate in our student’s world. This means having social media accounts and understanding how they are used, even if you don’t use them specifically for learning. We must be familiar enough with the new digital landscape that we can help students navigate their journey online, even if we don’t (or can’t) join them. Website Screenshots. Photography.

Whether posted online or simplyused in the classroom, our materials must be highly engaging and effective. PowerPoint and Word are becoming antiquated as newer and more powerful presentation and editing suites become available to teachers. Female Dominican Teenager Working On A Computer In Classroom.

It is our responsibility to compete (where necessary) with the quality of video games and media construction in order to hook students into great learning. As media conscious teachers,we can win student attention by working with them, not against them, for their learning. Video Game Console. Photography. Encyclopædia Britannica Image Quest. Web. 28 Mar 2012. http://quest.eb.com/images/132_1306007

As teachers of our time, we must realizethe implications of pervasive technologies such as smart phones and highly mobile tablets/computers. In addition, we must find ways to ‘make it work’ with technology, which may include enlisting students to help or learn more about the technologies we are using. Teenager On IPhone. Photography. Encyclopædia Britannica Image Quest. Web. 28 Mar 2012. http://quest.eb.com/images/139_1985414

…we work at making the technology work ( in the best way we can) so the lesson becomes about the learning instead of the management of machines. Young Girl Using Computer In Classroom. Photography. Encyclopædia Britannica Image Quest. Web. 28 Mar 2012. http://quest.eb.com/images/154_2891636

Gone are the days when teachers dole out assignments and send students on their merry way. A modern educator realizes the plethora of factors impacting students in our current world, and strives to tailor learning where possible toward individualized needs and interests.Teacher Helping Girl On Laptop. Photography. Encyclopædia Britannica Image Quest. Web. 28 Mar 2012.http://quest.eb.com/images/154_2883701

This student-centered focus also creates learning opportunities for the teacher to learn with students, developing theirteaching and collaborative skills. Students Looking At Laptop In Classroom.

…has the courage to admit that they do not know all of the answers and they openly show that they enjoy learning from their students… ...knows that to expect their students to become lifelong learners they must be willing to do the same. …shows children how to seek knowledge independently. …sees what can be accomplished, not what cannot be accomplished. …seeks innovative ways to help all children shine.Adapted from:Kuebler, Mary.

“…It’s about adding quality back into the equation and putting a human filter between you and the overwhelming world of content abundance that is swirling around us every day. Curation replaces noise with clarity.”Steven Rosenbaum, author Curation Nation Hamilton, Buffy. "Summer Seed Ideas:Curation, Participation, and Student PLEs."Web log post. The Unquiet Librarian. Web. 19 June 2011. <http://theunquietlibrarian.wordpress.com/>.

Brian Solis says “…a curator is thethat in social media… keeper of their interest …By discovering, organizing, and sharing relevant content from around the Web, curators invest in the integrity and vibrancy of their nicheworks.

We must educate the students we have, not the student we used to have, nor the student we wished we had. We must adapt to todays student, not them adapting to us. We must adapt to their world of todays 21st century technology. We cannot teach like weve taught forever anymore. We must change ourselves to adapt to their world. They are hyper-communicators and must "power down" just to go to school.http://teacherlingo.com/blogs/sharingtechnology/archive/2008/02/23/using-youtube-in-the-classroom.aspx

We shouldnt expect"out of the box" thinking when we only employ "in the box" teaching. Tom Whitby
