EDUCATIONAL INNOVATION GLOSSARY OBSERVATORY |Institute for the Future of Education

We know that teaching work goes beyond the activities carried out in the classroom.Teachers normally have endless activities to perform before and after class, from preparing the material for their students, review of exams and tasks, academic and administrative joints, attention to parents, advisory sessions and a long etcetera.All this, not counting the necessary professional preparation and training that everyone must lead to respond to the new challenges that are presented in the education sector.

Today, there are numerous options, face -to -face and online, where teachers can prepare and update continuously.However, much of the literature that we find in books, publications and online courses, are full of terms that, although frequently used, the meaning is often unknown.
