Learning to Unlearn

In today's world with all the technology and discoveries being made things are quickly changing, because of this there is constantly new ways to teach and learn. Sometimes we need to unlearn the things that are keeping us stuck in the past and take advantage of all the new possibilities there are now. Some teachers are stuck in the whole lecture then worksheet method just because that is the way things have always been done but that doesn't mean that is the right way or most effective way. Teachers need to unlearn that method and learn new ways that are more productive for students to learn.

It may be hard for a teacher to unlearn their old ways but in the end it will be very beneficial to the teacher and the students both. Routine in the classroom is hard to break sometimes but becoming up to date will make a bigger difference in learning than you could ever imagine. Keeping the students focused, involved and interested is so important and when keeping updated that is exactly what will happen!
