How teaching is changing?

Read this article by Terry Heick about how teaching is changing

This article made me thing about what is changing in the way we approach our job as teachers. 
What role(s) do we need to prepare ourselves to play? What practices do we need to 'let go of'? 
There are two ideas that are important in both what people are talking about and evident in successful modern learning environments.
  1. The first is the notion that teaching is now a de-privatised activity. As teachers we now need to understand the level of transparency required in all we are doing. 

  2. The second is the fact that teaching has moved from being an essential individualistic activity, to one that his highly collaborative.

How do we build these two concepts into Tuakau School next year??????
