The Teaching Profession in 2020 Adapted from Syllabus , April 2001, by David G. Brown, Center for Computer Enhanced Learning. David Brown offers this look into the future. The emerging teaching environment is one based on customization, collaboration, and interaction. Learning teams are common. Students aid each other.
Feedback is timely, and assignments are focused.
Aware of more learning styles and learning materials, teachers will no longer act as if one size fits all. Learning assignments will become much more complex, much more creative. Capitalize on Internet-based opportunities for more interaction and collaboration. Emphasize first the communication-enhancing aspects of the Internet. Delay extensive multimedia productions.
