The traditional image of a teacher, standing in front a blackboard, and disciplining and lecturing a class of 40-50 students, won’t ring true in coming years.It is imperative for every teacher to take on the role of a mentor (rather than a disciplinarian) who encourages her students to leverage technology in their journey of knowledge discovery – and do this with same nurturing guidance as they always have.
