The people formerly known as teachers and students

26 September, 2006 (08:50) | Commentary, Links

I came across this essay by Terry Anderson entitled, “The people formerly known and students and teachers” in which he explores the changing expectations that Web-connected learners and instructors have today.

Anderson concludes his essay by stating, “The people formerly known as students, taught by the people formerly known as teachers each share a demand for empowerment, technology, community, fairness and support. Since each of us is both formerly and currently a – person currently known as a connected learner and a connected educator of others, we have much to learn and to teach in the connected context of the Web. Can the established educational systems meet these demands?”
