Beyond Preaching: Teaching and learning in the internet age

To teach is to be a teacher; To learn is to be a student. Almost everyone has been a student, have had teachers, some people have also been teachers.

Han Yu's "division" in the teacher under a definition: teachers, so preach tuition doubts also, that is to say, teachers have three major tasks: preaching, tuition and doubts. This definition, after thousands of years, now seems to be very precise.

Traditionally, teachers are the voice of knowledge, and their most important role is to impart knowledge, and also to preach. That is to say, the teacher's three major tasks, the preacher headed.

The teacher can preach, the premise is that compared to the students, teachers have more knowledge, so can be taught to students.

However, with the advent of the internet era, the premise of the millennium has changed, the foundation of the teacher's preaching has been shaken:

A person's knowledge is always limited, but the information on the Internet is almost unlimited, everyone's knowledge growth is limited, but the information on the Internet is a burst of growth.

Therefore, we are now more through the Internet to obtain knowledge, through inquiry, retrieval to obtain knowledge, the Internet has become our knowledge base, the Internet has become our learning path.

In fact, not only students so, teachers will now through the Internet to obtain the corresponding knowledge. Because the same comes from the Internet, the teacher's knowledge of the students with respect to the advantages is difficult to reflect.

This is not a unique phenomenon in the internet age, and in the field of training, we have long seen this trend: training lecturers do not necessarily fully surpass students in knowledge.

If the teacher does not have the knowledge superiority, is no longer the spokesperson of the knowledge, then why does the teacher become the teacher?

This problem is especially a big problem for trainers. Finally, I found that the teacher is the teacher, the key is not knowledge, but the insight, that is, experience and methods.

Because, a lot of knowledge will not tell us the right way, and the more knowledge we touch, the more we will have a "flower is more attractive eye" feeling.

At this time, the teacher can play a role.

Teacher is the teacher, because he experienced, because he experienced setbacks and failures more, because he went through a lot of detours, finally succeeded, so he is the teacher.

The teacher is the teacher, but also because he is good at summing up experience, can find the key factors of failure and success, so as to avoid re-detours, so he is the teacher.

Thus, in the internet age, the teacher's focus will gradually shift from preaching to tuition and doubts, especially to the doubts.
