Education courses

Teachers in educational institutions direct the education of students and might draw on many subjects, including reading, writing, mathematics, science and history. This process is sometimes called schooling when referring to the education of teaching only a certain subject, usually as professors at institutions of higher learning. There is also education in fields for those who want specific vocational skills, such as those required to be a pilot. In addition there is an array of education possible at the informal level, such as in museums and libraries, with the Internet and in life experience. Many non-traditional education options are now available and continue to evolve.

Scholorship

Teachers need to understand a subject enough to convey its essence to students. While traditionally this has involved lecturing on the part of the teacher.

This gives students the opportunity to choose what they are interested in learning. The proliferation of computers also means the increase of programming and blogging.

Good teachers can translate information, good judgment, experience and wisdom into relevant knowledge that a student can understand, retain and pass.

The use of technologies such as PowerPoint and interactive whiteboard is capturing the attention of students in the classroom. Technology is also being used of students.
