Just look at the infographic, then the write up below:Technology has given both voice and space to teachers, who were sidelined all these while. Today, the average teacher, irrespective of where he is operating from, can create a visible brand for himself, leveraging some of technology's brain children like Social media and others.The advent of technology and it's surge, especially in this turn of the century, shifted the educational goal post from mastery-based to skill-based. Today's learners need skills and not subject mastery. In an effort to meet up with learners' demands, teachers have ended up helping themselves develop lifetime skills.Teachers are now blogging, producing video and other digital contents, producing high quality graphics etc. All these goods credited to technology.Technology has broken every racial and cultural boundaries, while bringing together the citizens of the world into one digital community.

That's technology at work!In time past, it was very difficult for teachers to get advanced degrees while still teaching. The reason being that their employers would hardly allow them do that because of the time involved. Secondly, the cost of pursuing such higher degrees was never supported by poor remuneration system many teachers are serving under.But today, a lot has changed. The average teacher does not need to quit his regular job to acquire a higher degree. From the comfort of one's home, one can study from anywhere in the world. As a teacher, you can still be in Nigeria, while studying at a university in Liverpool. Technology provided this leverage for distant learning.Besides, you don't need to break bank to acquire such higher degrees again, as most of them are free or at worst, go for the price of a coffee.Teachers should leverage technology to improve their lot in professional and personal development. It would be tantamount to shooting oneself in the foot, refusing to run with technology.If you're struggling to know how to go about it,Have a question? drop it in the comment box and we will promptly put you through.
