Good teaching

Oh, no! It's Monday...! A good teacher, they say, makes children glad it is...

A good teacher, good teaching... There's an article here that has 10 "requirements" for what good teaching should involve...

• It's about not only motivating students to learn, but teaching them how to learn, and doing so in a manner that is relevant, meaningful, and memorable.
• [It's] about listening, questioning, being responsive, and remembering that each student and class is different.
• [It's] about not always having a fixed agenda and being rigid, but being flexible, fluid, experimenting, and having the confidence to react and adjust to changing circumstances...
  

No mention of "technology", no mention of "computers" (or "grammar", for that matter!)... but there's still a lot there that would apply, no matter how much technology you might be using in your classroom.
