Change is not a matter of chance. It is a matter of choice.
All systems must develop resilient behaviors. All people can be resilient with the right mindset and tools. Technology has always been with us. It is nothing new. .....pencils, paper, calculators, copy machines, etc have pushed educators to change their tools. Now we must continue to focus on the learner... what are the tools that focus on them? Their total being? The whole person? Be they children or adult learners....
