Hackschooling
Logan LaPlante is an amazing young man, who has taken charge of his own
learning. In this video from TED Talks, he explains how he infuses his
learning with life experiences leaving him with rich, deep learning.
The Teacherpreneur
We all do it. As teachers, we are constantly creating and
revising materials for our students. We share these with colleagues,
but almost never get any compensation for the hours we spend writing and
organizing these lessons or activities.
But with the rise
of websites like Teachers Pay Teachers, we may finally have an outlet
to share our creations and receive some compensation as we share them
with any teacher willing to pay a moderate fee to download them. Having
explored the TPT website, I can say I found some great resources at low
prizes. And some are even free.
So, what are teacherpreneurs?
According to Paul Moss, in 2015-2020: The Rise of the Teacherpreneur, 8 of the next big edtech products will be invented by teacherpreneurs.
This
is exciting news. After all, teachers know their students better than
any edtech company. Younger teachers are more aware of startup
businesses, and more used to sharing ideas online.
This
is great news for students and schools. Companies often have to charge
higher fees to cover production costs, while teachers produce materials
that are more affordable and more tuned in to student needs. With the
rise of iTunes and other apps stores, teachers can produce their
materials and share them worldwide.
