To be a (blended) b-teacher in the XXI century – some reflections
A big evolution took place happened during the last 70 years. From a room computer (the Mark I in 1943) to tiny pockets computers, thousands of times smaller and thousands of times bigger in performance and capacity.
E-learning 3.0, is based on synchronous interactivity and it was only possible after 2004 due to considerable increase of Internet bandwidth available, evolution in video compression, stream video and sophistication of virtual classrooms platforms. This was another revolution!
As a result of this, e-learning evolve to a new form: - b-learning - where students will never be alone and interactivity becomes very important.
B-learning now has a different format: it is from now on asynchronous (contents on demand and activities to be implemented in an interactive format with remote collaborative work) and synchronous in presence or virtual environment.
Today we are living in exponential times in the evolution of new technologies and new methodologies.
About our students: our students are digital learners, they spend many hours in front of TV, using mobile phones or playing video games and asking for distance learning. They are asking for new methods and new techniques to be taught in the school of the future and they certainly expect adjustments to the teacher skills.
According to the fantastic evolution in methods and techniques available the “e” from of e-learning would just disappear, as Rosenberg said in 2001: “in the future it will evolve just to learning”. In the same way (blended) b-learning will not exist anymore, as presence and online learning, but asynchronous and synchronous in presence or online in a virtual classroom.
Today students are different, are asking for new methods and new learning techniques, so they can be more competitive in a global world.

Abstracts
Being a teacher in the XXI century is a great challenge and requires
great thought.A big evolution took place happened during the last 70 years. From a room computer (the Mark I in 1943) to tiny pockets computers, thousands of times smaller and thousands of times bigger in performance and capacity.
E-learning 3.0, is based on synchronous interactivity and it was only possible after 2004 due to considerable increase of Internet bandwidth available, evolution in video compression, stream video and sophistication of virtual classrooms platforms. This was another revolution!
As a result of this, e-learning evolve to a new form: - b-learning - where students will never be alone and interactivity becomes very important.
B-learning now has a different format: it is from now on asynchronous (contents on demand and activities to be implemented in an interactive format with remote collaborative work) and synchronous in presence or virtual environment.
Today we are living in exponential times in the evolution of new technologies and new methodologies.
About our students: our students are digital learners, they spend many hours in front of TV, using mobile phones or playing video games and asking for distance learning. They are asking for new methods and new techniques to be taught in the school of the future and they certainly expect adjustments to the teacher skills.
According to the fantastic evolution in methods and techniques available the “e” from of e-learning would just disappear, as Rosenberg said in 2001: “in the future it will evolve just to learning”. In the same way (blended) b-learning will not exist anymore, as presence and online learning, but asynchronous and synchronous in presence or online in a virtual classroom.
Today students are different, are asking for new methods and new learning techniques, so they can be more competitive in a global world.
The main challenge remains on the teacher’s shoulders, as to acquiring
new skills.
We need a plan “B”.
Teachers need to evolve from teacher to (blended) b-teacher or b-tutor,
offering a mixed teaching experience.
Our conclusions are:
We need to use methodologies and technologies, but the question is: what
type of tools, methodologies and technologies should we use to be a good
teacher?
1. It is necessary to be an expert in your
scientific area;
2. You should know how to prepare and
present contents in presence or video format;
3. Know how to make tutoring in
presence or distance mode;
4. You should be able to conduct Formative
continuous assessment;
5. You need to Know how to use a LMS;
6. If working at distance a teacher
should know how to use a virtual classroom.
Teachers should also be experts in:
7. Teaching with new methodologies and
ICT tools;
8. Teaching how to learn;
9. Teaching how to manage huge quantities of information.
The final conclusions turn into the question.
Are we teachers prepared to be
(blended) “b-teachers” in the school of the future?
