CEdO565 - Week 3

This week we were asked to watch Who Moved My Cheese? I had never watched it before, nor have I read it. I enjoyed the brief video that can inspire adapting to new ideas or materials. This is a concept which I think is very important. Our world is constantly changing and we must change with it, especially as teachers. It is our job to teach students the most up-to-date information. In order to do that, we must be able to adapt our curriculum and increase the relevance of our lessons.

We also read about Millennials, people born between 1978 and later, who combine teamwork and technology to increase students' understanding of lessons. Millennials multitask well, love technology, and have a high tolerance for change, innovation, and learning. Millennials are ideal teachers because they adapt easily and can create an ideal classroom for modern students.
