Short Discussion:

There is a big difference between then and now as we undergoes significant changes
over time. In the past, education has been characterized as teacher centered wherein teachers
are the primary source of information, and students were passive learners. Also, the students
only relied in printed materials such as books, lectures and memorization. On the other hand, a
move in the direction of a more student-centered strategy has occurred recently. Education now
focuses on active learning, critical thinking and personalized instruction. Also, students can now
access wide range of information through technology. Moreover, in order to meet the varied
needs and learning preferences of their students, teachers work hard to create dynamic and
captivating learning environments.
