Role of Teachers in the Modern
Society
The
wоrld changes day by day and there is no doubt
that the modern society is not the same with an ancient one. For
example, education system has changed completly - nowdays being
teacher does not mean only being a helper in difficult process of
getting education; it means being creative and highly talented
"guide", which accompanies a student in all way of studying. Are
these changes positive or
negative?
In my opinion, contemporary teachers should
pay more attention to new methods of teaching, what will make
studying more enjoyable. First of all, in conditions, when people
are surronded by great number of information, school or university
program can be remembered only by association; that is why lessons
must be expressive and remarkable. Secondly, today humanity has the
accsess to immence resourse, such as books, science reserches and
teacher`s role, which provide student with it, is not actual
today.
However, some people believe that a classic
teacher is more reliable, becouse new methods of education can be
untested yet. They also consider that instead of imagining
something new, it is better to make knowlage deeper for both
students and
teachers.
I am afraid they are not right, because
education system cannot stay in one level. Moreover, in modern
society depth of knowlage does not play the mainest role; it is
more important to be
flexible.
In conclusion I strongly believe that the way
of getting education is very individual and choice depends on our
preferences.
