The Anatomy Of A Great Teacher

See on Scoop.it – M-learning, E-Learning, and Technical Communications

There are a lot of great teachers out there. But what, exactly, makes a teacher a great teacher? Is their approach to their students and their classroom different?

This is courtesy of http://www.topteachingcolleges.net/great-teachers/. Just because I’m a huge proponent of e-learning and m-learning doesn’t mean that I’m anti-teacher. Quite the contrary! I’m a teacher’s kid, and all my siblings and I have had some sort of training or teaching position in our lifetimes in different ways. To quote my very wise taekwondo instructor, “The best way to learn is to teach.” I hope teachers never go away, as the really good ones are instrumental in helping all kids learn to fulfill their potential. ;

I know you referenced edudemic.com in your article, but they failed to recognize us as the source in their piece.

Hi Ryan–

I’ve added something to the text. I had curated it using ScoopIt, so I didn’t have that much control over it. Besides, there is something in the infographic itself that notes that it’s from your website anyway, but if you want it mentioned twice, that’s fine. It’s done.

Thanks for reading,
TechCommGeekMom
