The first
one is like the philosopher’s stone of knowledge because our society is moving
supported in it and new generations are growing digital since they are born. So
that, new illiterates are going to be those who doesn’t manage IT properly and,
because of this, I must contribute to teach them to my pupils next to my own
subject knowledge.
On the
other hand, I’m one of those people who believe that everything can be
improved. Although I have experienced many approaches to teach my subject to
different kinds of students and I have learnt those system that work better for
me, I think that new methodologies might work better or maybe can be adapted to
improve my own one.
Both, IT
and teaching methodologies, are universal matters. That’s way I consider that
the best way to share good practices amongst teachers are those that are
accessible all around the world through Internet applications or collaborative
forums for example. Conferences, meetings and face-to-face workshops are very
interesting and very productive but reduces the chances of knowing new methods
and ideas, especially from different cultures and educational systems.
