I recently completed my masters degree and having completed my bachelor's degree decades prior, new learning definitely was incorporated in my higher degree. Technology was a huge factor in obtaining class details, counseling, learning , testing and grading. It was more efficient especially for a working class student. The level of flexibility was priceless. Peer to peer collaborating was seamless due to platforms like discord as well
Even in the midst of complex and fast changing advancement in technology, teachers are still irreplaceable. only that educators must equip themselves to be ready to be an agent of change and prepare the learners for the future that is ahead of them

I've been a teacher for five years and one of the problem that I encounter was the student behavior. It is really hard to discipline child in the school right now. The learning of the students interrupt we're there is/are err student inside the classroom while the teacher is discussing. I hope that this generation needs to address their behavior at home first especially in the Philippine.
In this era that all the tools, materials are so advanced and powerful, we need to step onward and be versatile on what here today, to achieved more than anything else.

I've been a teacher and pedagogical coordinator for 15 years at Brazil's largest social project within a favela: the Baccarelli Institute. I'm also a professor at a private university. The differences in reality between institutions are absurd! Indeed, educational policy is increasingly becoming more distant and receiving fewer and fewer public resources. The starting point of a student born poor, without a father present, without the certainty of food at home, is infinitely inferior to that of a privileged student. And some people don't believe this. However, the drive and will to succeed are much greater! That's where new learning comes into play! Within this underprivileged world, we need to use every possible tool so these students can compete on equal terms in the job market.
Hace unos años, debía enseñar a hacer un análisis estadístico estándar a mis estudiantes. En lugar de limitarme al software del laboratorio, les propuse analizar datos abiertos sobre salud mental en su propia universidad, por los que les pedí que hicieran encuestas y procesaran la información. El producto final no fue solo un informe, que nos llevó a reflexionar sobre la salud mental en nuestra comunidad. Esta experiencia me demostró que nuestro nuevo rol es capacitar a los estudiantes para que produzcan conocimiento pertinente, no solo lo consuman. Lo que me hace reflexionar sobre la transición en la naturaleza de la educación, la cual es impulsada por la diversidad, la tecnología y la globalización y redefine mi rol docente de investigador en Psicología.
Asi que hemos pasado de la transferencia de información a un enfoque en la transformación contextualizada y generación de conocimientos. que exigen que seamos líderes de cambio con una postura estratégica y adoptando un rol de arquitecto-artista que diseña el futuro.
agree.
