Many of us have had our fair share of good and bad teachers. Anything can be taught but it takes a special person to be able to teach it. Although school isn’t the most fun place in the world (for some, not all), I think it’s safe to say that everyone can recall a fond memory they have with a particular instructor.
These innovations are strong examples of different teaching styles and teaching outlets (some online…some hot…some hot and online). I hope you enjoy these 16 teaching innovations from robot substitutes to student/teacher love affairs.
