Blog Post #2, What Will Teaching in the 21 Century be like ?

Mr.Dancealot's video.

1.The central message of Mr. Dancealot's video is teachers need to teach and let the students see what they doing while they teaching the lesson. Teachers must let students ask question if students do not understand anything. In the video, Mr. Dancealot was showed the power point and danced behind the table, his students cannot see what he doing. When the student stand up and practice for the dance movement, Mr.Dancealot did not allow them to do that. That action is completely wrong for teacher to be in the classroom.

2.On the final test day, Mr.Dancealot told everyone gets a partner and dances while he has his camcorder on to recording his students' dance test.Nobody knows how to dance because Mr.Dancealot did not let his students practice anything.

3. I agree with this conclusion because the way Mr.Dancealot teach is wrong, students did not learn anything, the class is bring and he did not create any activity for student to participate. Because Mr.Dancealot did not let his student see how he dance and did not let his student practice, on the test day, nobody knows how to dance and get confuse .

Teaching in the 21st Century

Teaching In the 21st Century is completely changing the way of teaching. The world is continue changing with better technology everyday .Teaching in the 21st Century according to Roberts Kevin means to use laptops and iPads for research and study instead of used pencil and paper like they used to. The question was post on the video is "What does Creation mean today?" As said by Roberts, creation means blogging, podcasting, animating, planning ,recording, designing and programing. I believe the teachers need to educated about varies of technology to teach the students to handle these creation such as validate information, synthesize information, leverage information, communicate information, collaborate information and problem solving.

In the Roberts's video, it gave examples tools for the students to study such as Facebook,youtube, google, blogs and tweeter. The students can find information on anything , anywhere at anytime by using these tools. There are others teaching skill like paraphrasing, attributing, subscribing, editing, searching, networking, experimenting. If Roberts is correct about teaching in 21st Century, it will affects to all educators. All teachers need to learn about latest technology knowledge to use for teaching. Teachers should change the way they been teaching and use varies tools to guide and teach their students different to learn. As a teacher in the future, I must engage with students to help them to used technology for study in correctly way. Moreover, teachers to must create activities along with the lesson, so the students may have long term and meaningful results.It will be responsibility for all educators to teach the student how to communicate properly by being reliable.

The Networked Student

It is wonderful to know that the networked student learn and do everything without the textbook and teacher. Networked student learn through web based instead of lecture based. Moreover, the networked student is a model for construction of personal learning environment. It is opportunity to customize the teaching environment for individual learners.

Why does the networked student even need a teacher ?If networked student does not need teacher, all educators are become obsolete. Obviously, it is impossible. The teachers are still have important role for all networked students because they need someone to guide and show them how to access the network and find out all limitless information. Networked student can do anything, but when they have troubles and issues, they need someone to help them fix and solve the problems. The teacher have great knowledge to provide information for students to communicate properly. Furthermore, teachers construct the students consider useful information and recognize right and wrong information. Although the student no longer use pencil and paper, the educators alway have important role in education.

Harness Your Students' Digital Smarts

In this video, Vicki Davis guide her students how to use Wiki Teen, so the students in her classroom can post their assignments and connect with others students around the world through blogging. Wiki Teen is a global collaborative project which allow students can communicate and learn different things with diverse student =s around the world. Technology is play important role in the classroom because when teach expand students' vocabulary, they can used computer to find out what the new words meaning without asking the teacher.Computer is advantage tools for teacher's classroom in the future. With this technology, I think the future of education will make our students successful in their career.

Flipping a classroom

Flipping a classroom is new to me as future teacher. I think this approach will be useful to me as a teacher because it helps the students prepared the lesson the night before class start, so they can get an idea what they will learn at school tomorrow. This approach also helps students write down questions and information for the discussion in class. Flipping a classroom program takes our students to the next level of learning. It also help students create and having fun with their learning with technology. I think the flipping a classroom is better for teachers and students. It saves for teachers because their students already prepared for the lesson at home. In class, teachers answer all questions student asking instead of standing in front of class to lecture the lesson like they used to do. With this great and useful program. I think students will have more experiences and having while learning.

  1. Hello Anh,
    I definitely agree with you that although students are now able to use technology to access pretty much any information they could ever want or need that teachers still hold an important place in the classroom. I think it's important for teachers to be there to encourage their students, to help them if they get stuck, and to teach them how to filter through all of this information for sources that are reputable. Teachers need to be there to teach students how to use all of this information, and how to become lifelong learners & use the skills they have learned to their advantage! I enjoyed reading about your opinions! :)
