Reflection on Student 2.0

The blog I read was by a student called Nicole Kim. She talked about how schools .shouldn't be a place that is all about teachers preaching to the students. She believes that schools should be more of a place where students can have a variety in learning other than just reading the books and listening to the teachers.I thought that her idea of what a school should be is actually pretty similar to our school. Our school doesn't really use any text book, and each teacher has a different way of teaching. Some shows videos, some has activities with the students, and some gives questions and allow the students to present in the way they would like to. I agree that schools shouldn't be all about reading and listening, because that is not what the reality is about. We need to be able to present what we know, and make connections between different ideas that we learned.

What should teachers be doing? What is their role? Give examples.
