•We will look at past Verses future teaching from the classroom
•How the information will be delivered to the student
•Summary of What we CAN do differently
We can no longer rely on just the
Blackboard and books to teach our
Children, we have access to so much
More. We will still need to be in the classroom
With Primary aged students, but there may be
A larger group of students with a larger team
Of teachers overseeing their individual learning.
Lets look at BEHAVOURISM
It is a theory that explains learning in terms of observable
behaviours and how they’re influenced
by stimuli from the environment.

How the information will be delivered to the student
- It will be the teacher's role to guide learners towards a broad and balanced curriculum
and teach them the skills needed to embark on personal study and research.
- Conferencing will take on a major role as teachers encourage self-assessment and
reflection.
- In short, they will unlock the potential within all learners and empower them with
the tools for learning. (Teachers T.V. Libby Pryce) Curtin university of technology , retrieved from

•believe there will still be a need for the provision of key subjects.
•These will form the foundations of learning, and learners will then build their own curriculum based upon individual needs and interests.

WOW what powerful words Libby Pryce writes in her article, to dream of the future classroom .
•If only we could go back and have that type of education the possibilities would seem endless.
•How great to be a part of this changing time in teaching.
•To bring the learning's from our past philosophers and experiment within the
classroom with the individual child’s; individual skills, abilities, strengths and weakness and watch them take off to reach their goals.
•The possibilities for individuals to choose their own education route
•Imagine their enthusiasm to learn with so much individual choice in HOW they learn .
•Networking and sharing information will be at their fingertips
Summary of what we CAN do differently
WE NEED TO BELIEVE IT IS IMPORTANT TO DEVELOP A PERSONAL PHILOSPHY
OF EDUCATION
Together with the child we can build them a future based on their individual strengths and weakness, offer them
Opportunities and teach them about the external threats.
