Rerflections on week 1 readings

Growing up through the changeover period from the late industrial to the 21st century model was challenging as there were teachers that accepted the changes and those that continued in their old ways. The universities were more willing to teach using the 21st century model however there was still the odd lecture stuck in their old habits. This is a problem that I could see still happening more and more now days especially as technology is evolving so rapidly over the last ten years and who knows what is to come in the next ten years. If teachers are not flowing with the technology and new ideas they will get left behind and the students are the ones who suffer out of this. These readings emphasises the need for teaching pedagogies and strategies to change for the 21st century learner.
