From the 3Rs to the 6Cs

Dr. Strange makes a great point with using his 6Cs relating to our technologically advanced society and how we should advance in our ways of teaching students. There are so many methods of learning other than through text now and we should take advantage of them. Having the ability to communicate with other teachers and students from around the world enables us to branch out and strengthen our knowledge in many different ways. We are able to do this through collaboration in working with others not just in the same classroom or state or country, but from all over the world. We as teachers must start thinking critically and become open-minded and creative in teaching, enabling our students to do the same in learning. Curiosity leaves us coming back for more and we should make resources available to students for them to have easy access to materials that will get them thinking creatively. Dr. Strange's 6C's are good ways for students to go about learning.
