Mr. Brown surprised me with his thought. I admit, I probably had prejudice against older teacher because it reminds me of my own school experience. The fact is that most of my older teachers were just overwhelm about their job. They were there to work, not to enhance their students knowledge. That's why Mr. Brown inspires me on the way he sees school environment. He said that the best way to learn something is to teach it, and I totally buy his idea.
With that beeing said, I have to agree that technology, creativity and learning should be part of a new way of teaching. We shouldn't be scare to improve and develop our knowledge on a different way since we are living in an instant world. Unfortunately, I'm a little bit obset about the fact that we think our identity comes from what we wear, what our parents own and how much materiel possession we have. It's so true that our future generation is growing with this in mind. As a mother of my own, it makes me think about the value I want to give to my kids and also to my future students. I found excellent the idea of sharing with peers to stimulate our imagination. Anyway, that's exactly what most researcher has done in the past. And when I say sharing, I mean exchanging knowledge without looking at age, status and gender. We can all learn from each one if only, and I'm saying if only we are taking the time to listen to each other. This would bring us to a different world where everybody would participate in our network.
I hope this will bring us to new way to teach and accept each other criticism.
