They believe we are teaching like we have for years and years and years. They do not think we are preparing students for the 21st century. Jobs change, information changes and the feeling is that we need students who are critical thinkers and problem solvers. Do you agree? What do we need to change about education to achieve that? Do you disagree? Why?” [...] […] I received this comment on my “Bumping up reflections” post and it led me to a group of students who were asked by their instructor to respond to this prompt I had posed: “A lot of adults are saying that education needs to change.

Some people would claim that even though the world is changing much of the way we teach has remained very traditional. While reading an article titled “‘Bumping Up’ Reflections” the following writing prompt was given. I would like you to read the prompt and respond to it with your own thoughts. “A lot of adults are saying that education needs to change.

What will it take to have all teachers ask their students those kinds of questions? Are they afraid to hear the answers? Is it a fear, on their part, that they don't have all the answers themselves? Is it time to give teachers "permission" to not be the experts but to defer to their students? Thank you for your questions for reflection.
