Nurturing the network: "As a teacher, my role is a fine line between taking over the network, leaving it too much alone, and nurturing it, helping it to build up." Exactly. I've viewed long viewed an educator's role as being that of a facilitator. I now believe that an educator's role is to foster and direct network formation - connecting learners to each other, to content, to new tools.
