The educational trend that I have been a part of is teaching to alternative learning styles. As a young student, I can remember lessons that were one dimensional. The teacher would explain it, and you would be asked to do the lesson at your desk. In today's classroom, students learn from video demonstrations, auditory devices, peer interactions, and other creative resources. The newest thing that I have personally witnessed is game-based learning. These alternatives have made learning equitable to all kinds of students.
Overall, educational trends change as society changes. For me, these changes represent a positive evolution that will give us all a brighter future. This also teaches us all how to use multiple resources to get the information that we need. As a teacher, it is imperative to stay abreast of educational trends in order to research what trends work and which ones don't. It is important to keep in mind that some trends fall short and they fade away. However, I am fine with that because at least I know that people are thinking about how to improve education.
