Section 2, Activity 1

The traditional role of the teacher has been changing, yet stays the same.  The task is to pass on knowledge, to guide learners as they travel their learning journey and lead them towards finding their own solutions.

What has changed? The means, media, environment and technology availble to learners and to teachers.  From original distance-learning which meant sending text books and recieving students' answer papers by post to today's emailing, instant messaging and online classrooms.

As a teacher, tutor and lecturer the role is to help the learner achieve success in their education, to help them understand and apply the material, rather than just learn the facts and figures.
