Quoted from post: More and more in recent years, we've started referring to the kids in our classes as "learners" rather than "students." It began unintentionally but became more and more frequent. We gradually realized that the relationship between learner and educator is not always the same as between student and teacher. Via Beth Dichter

Do you think of the children in your class as learners or students? Do you think of yourself as a teacher or an educator? And how do you define these words: learner, student, teacher, educator. This post explores how the word learner differs from the word student. One statement in the post "The word "learner" suggests an open-mindedness and a self-initiation. The word "student," however, implies a hierarchy. It defines a status, where one is the instructor and the other is the pupil." If we view our classroom as individuals whom are learners then what is the role of the educator? The five ideas listed below are explored: * Expertise * Mentorship * Feedback * Deftness with necessary tools The first post in this series (of two) explored '5 Things Students Expect from their Teacher' was scooped here). This post continues the dialogue and may provide you with some new insights into how you view yourself in your classroom this year...food for though.

"Les 10 séquences proposées ici traitent des différentes phases d'acquisition d'une nouvelle notion en langue vivante menées par deux enseignantes dont le niveau de langue n'est pas expert. Avec Eliane et Annick, nous allons voir comment ces phases d'acquisition se succèdent tout en relevant et analysant les principales difficultés auxquelles comme nombre de leurs collègues elles se trouvent confrontées. L'analyse de leurs pratiques respectives par des experts en anglais et en didactique des langues vivantes vise à donner aux enseignants ou futurs enseignants qui visionneront ces séquences le recul nécessaire sur leur propre pratique tout en leur suggérant des pistes de réflexion afin de palier leurs difficultés."

From your feedback, we revised the chart so assessment AS, OF, and FOR learning was clarified for each of the terms.
Differentiation involves assessment FOR learning and OF learning. This is assessment that involves time-based testing where teachers provide feedback to advance learning.
Personalization involves assessment AS learning, FOR learning, and a minimal OF learning. This is where teachers develop capacity so learners become independent learners who set goals, monitor progress, and reflect on learning. Assessments are based on mastery. Via Barbara Bray

Forgot to add knowledge of digital teaching aids: www.professorwrite.com
I think these are also characteristics of a digitally competent learner. Teachers certainly need these skills before they can teach the next generation.
