A New Educational Paradigm

Teachers

Students

NO WALLS

The “divide” between teacher and student is decreasing

and blurring. Technology allows for both access toknowledge and delivery of that knowledge. There

is nolonger a “gatekeeper” in front of the house of

knowledge.The classroom no longer has 4 walls. People do

not needto enter and leave at set times.

We are free to learn to the beat of our own drummer.

Learning is natural. Every student is always learning.

But WHAT are they learning?Why not our curriculum?

beneficial to both instruction and learning, either alone or together.
