Hunt for Digital Educators

Digital literacy is the call of the hour .The world is talking about digital leaders these days .The skills that were required to be an innovative teacher previously has reformed its meaning in the changing educational scenario . There are teachers but the world needs educators . Today's educators must learn to have symbiotic relationships with technology keeping in mind the students and the parents fraternity too .We need to harness the power of technology to change our professional practice and initiate change in the classroom .
                                                    Our students are learners .We need to keep our students engaged .Students that are not engaged are not likely learning .We need to put the real world tools in the hands of our learners and allow them to demonstrate what they have acquired .This will enhance essential skills like communication,problem solving ,global connectivity ,innovation ,critical thinking teamwork ..you name it and the list is endless.

Let me apprise you that the world today is hunting for these skills in an educator.The educators today must have their own PLN (Personal Learning  Network )to meet their own learning requirement to receive feedback , to connect with other educators for their learning experiences and practices .It is important for the educators to keep updating ourselves in terms of resources for the benefit of the students and for the educators fraternity .
