1. What role do you think technology does take/can take in learning?
Technology is proven to be a very effective teaching tool. The appropiate use of technology can save time, be more interesting, be entertaing, and meaningful for the students we are teaching nowadays.
2. What role should the learner take in the classroom?
In my point of view, the role of the learner depends on the learning activity and moment of the class. For example, if you are motivating the students in the introduction of the class, your students take a receptive role and in the core of the lesson, they take a more active role.
3. What role should the teacher take in the classroom?
It also depends on the learnning theory. If your classes are teacher´s centered, the role is more active, however if your classes are student´s centered, the teacher has to provide the tools to the studentes and they have to create using elementes studied and teachers monitor and assess learning.
Questions 2 and 3 depend on the approach you are using, but in Chile in some there are still teacher´s centered classrooms and few teachers know, practice and use learning theories and teaching approaches.
4. What does good teaching look like?
I think a well-documented approach, according to student´s needs and lacks. Classes very weel planned, using as many different inputs as posible.
A good teaching needs a motivated teacher in every way.
