The Teacher's Mission

On-Going Learning

sidephotoCommitted teachers see the profession as an on-going learning environment, where students as well as teachers work side-by-side in educational discovery. New technology provides a way to get knowledge into the hands of students much more quickly than in days past. This new flow of information requires both teacher and student to develop their abilities to think critically, solve problems, analyze sources, and make good judgments.

This readily available information allows the teacher to have more time to prepare interactive multimedia projects where students will gather, sort, internalize, and share information with others. Teachers see their teaching, especially in the area of technology, as an on-going process, realizing that technology by nature is something that can never be mastered, but must constantly be manipulated and shaped into a well fitting tool in the hands of its user.
