Over the next five years, I see my teaching becoming more reliant on technology. Technology changes so much and so quickly; therefore I"ll need to be on top of the newest and greatest. My hope is that the technology being used in my classroom will be used by the students and not by me. They need to have control over their learning and I will be there to guide them through the process.
Another vision I have for the next five years is that my students will be taking more ownership over their learning. They will be allowed to choose the path of their learning and will gauge their progress. As the guide, I will need to teach them the process for progress monitoring that we will follow and will allow them to dabble in it. I will be there as needed to encourage and help them stay on track.
The next five years of teaching will bring about change...change on my part and change on the part of the learner.
