Participatory Pedagogy
Students take an active role in reflecting on their learning. Elements include interactive portfolios, Wikis, ongoing, real-time updates, and collective input.

Educational careers forge new paths As education is unbundled into a constellation of functions and roles to meet the needs of the emerging learning economy, the teaching profession will experience a creative breakout. New administrative, classroom, and community roles will differentiate educational careers, attracting new entrants and providing new avenues for experienced educators to branch out—as content experts, learning coaches, network navigators, cognitive specialists, resource managers, or community liaisons. Interactive media link diverse groups of educators and students in ad hoc groups to perform new kinds of collective assessment and evaluation of both students and educators.
