Steve Wheeler has put a new presentation into
SlideShare, it says it all. I find it so interesting that in tertiary institutions, where they are training people to be classroom teachers, they lecture to their students about these points but still in the old dreary mass lectures (
where you see the students dozing off - some things don't change - or text messaging - the newer way to disengage). I wonder sometimes if these lecturers ever consider themselves to be good role models for their students?
I know that some teachers or lecturers are slowly changing but I wonder how long it will take before others do? Does money have anything to do with it?
