Wk 2-Reading CH. 4-6
As with a musical conductor, teachers are not all knowing and never wrong. Teachers also need to be able to admit mistakes to their students. This makes them appear more human if you will. Also students feel more comfortable and willing to learn when they have a teacher who guides not leads. Students should be given the lead in the classroom to make them feel a part of the class. Peers sometimes learn better from each other and by working as a group rather than the teacher doing nothing but lecture. When you let yourself be questioned, you yourself learn how to improve. So let loose once in awhile and turn the baton over to your students. You never know what you might learn yourself.

Great point Cherie! My AR project involves classroom technology integration. While working with students and teachers, I noticed that the teachers that weren’t afraid of making mistakes or asking students for assistance actually used the technology more often and improved their competency much quicker than the other group. Along with being helpful to teachers, students were more relaxed and more willing to participate.
