The Character of a Teacher 
in a Time of Technological Change

This very short course is for teachers who are feeling swamped. Take time to reflect, think and find your own space.

Over the last few years, we have seen the pressure of change on teachers. From the tech integrator before the pandemic to the successful Covid teacher and now the teacher in the time of AI (artificial intelligence) growth.

The character of the teacher helps one to cope, and succeed in the changing classroom, such as curiosity, adaptability, critical thinking, collaboration, empathy, innovation, resilience and digital literacy, 

During the session I will share ideas about how the change in the technological world around schooling, could assist and empower many teachers, to incorporate learning activities that enable change. Ideas to help you succeed in a time of technological-educational change.
