21st Century Learning and Teaching

Inline with the editorial policy of Educational Technology and Mobile Learning, I often find myself sharing articles on the nature of learning and learning methods without having necessarily to be connected to technology. Technology is definitely part and parcel of the educational spectrum but it does not subsume it.

 

As a teacher, I personally look at  technology only as a means to perfecting my teaching and therefore enhancing my students learning. Having a basic knowledge on the teaching pedagogy and learning theories is another means to bettering our teaching practice which would eventually serve our ultimate goal : Improving our students learning.

 

That being said, today's post is about the four pillars of education as has been conceptualized by United Nations report on Education. I have really enjoyed reading the entire report and those four pillars in particular stood out for me and thought you might be interested in reading them as well. I will copy you parts of what these pillars are all about and provide you with the links to read more on them .
