Yup,,you can say that again @fun2learn. I just think again and again that even though we live in different country, like west and east, the problems in the classroom are still the same. It's really good then if we can find some solution just by reading others experience in solving the problems.
Related to the using of technology, I do agree too. the role of the teachers also change because of the effect of technology. Nowadays, they can learn independently by accessing a thousand of resource on what they are learning without any limits. Teacher' challenge is to have innovation/creative ways in facilitating their students to learn.
