While watching this video it was neat to see how the education world has changed and improved throughout time. I do believe that we as future teachers need to reimagine education. This is not a change that can happen in a day but with trial and error this is a change that could have many benefits to the future generations. Something we need to keep in mind is that something that may work for one person may not work for another. We need diversity in our ways of teaching along with our teaching environments.
As I reflected before, change may not be able to happen right away. There will be obstacles that educators need to get through in order to change the pedagogy. New ways of thinking are a part of the unknown, they are experimental. Parents and authorities may not agree with this change but over time the positives will be revealed, it just takes time.
A learning plan approach can be scary as it is less structured and new! On the flip side, learning plans give new outlooks on teaching and learning ideas. The idea of trying new things like not doing written, multiple choice exams and instead finding better ways to show off the students capabilities is a lot more beneficial for both the student and their educator. Parts of this movie reminded me of our own seminar meetings. When everyone was sharing what they were thinking and everyone was learning from each other. When students get the opportunity to share what they are thinking on their own terms and are in encouraged to, it helps them become more confident in themselves.
