04/27/21; Week 02: Response to "Is the Great American Teacher Dead?"

    Undertaking in the world of teaching is not an easy task. Teaching requires many aspects in which the human being must work to get ahead together with his students.

    Being a teacher requires much more than just standing in front of students and teaching a subject; We know that this implies good planning and the application of appropriate methods and approaches for their development and to attract the attention of our students at all times, but none of this could be achieved with satisfaction if we are not empathetic and innovative.

    Nowadays education has innovated significantly, and even more so with the use of information and communication technologies (ICT) that gives us even more resources to be able to deepen what we want to teach in the classroom.

    Another important aspect is the state of adaptation and change of mindset in adversity since today our classrooms are made up of students from many parts of the world and sharing, coinciding or knowing how to cope with each other's culture is not easy. The behavioral part of the students is very significant in the role of the teacher, because the effective development of the classes depends on their control, and if as teachers we can achieve that, it means that we are great caretakers of our troop, that is to say, our students.

    The great American teacher has not died and will not die, you just have to change the chip "The mindset".

  2. Hi Santiago

    I agree with you when you say that being a teacher is much more than teaching a class. A starting point for me is to know what my resources are, to know my space of action, to understand the needs or interests of my students and from there to address the matter. Students realize when you are there just to deliver or when you are truly committed to them. If you commit, they do too.

  3. I totally agree with you!! Teaching will be what we make it! If the students see our positivity about what is being taught, it will truly make a world of a difference! :)

  4. Good point Santiago as teachers we have to be at the vanguard of education and the use of ICT is part of that.
    the new generations are technological therefore they learn more using technology of course under the direction of their teacher always focusing on the objectives of the lesson
