    #INZPirED A2. Big question, biggest difference... Is that often not enough time for training the adults set aside...
  • JKatzaman Jun 16 @ 10:45 PM EDT
    A2 Do you feel more comfortable among peers or with students? #INZpirED
  • rsehji - Moderator Jun 16 @ 10:45 PM EDT

    a3 I feel most rewarded when I realize I was helpful. It doesn't matter as teacher or leader #INZpirED
  • JKatzaman Jun 16 @ 10:55 PM EDT
    A3 Maybe teacher and leader can be seen as one and the same. #INZpirED
  • sansanananana - Moderator Jun 16 @ 10:55 PM EDT
    A3 the two roles are kind of overlapping in the new age teacher role. So many of us are teaching & leading at the same time #INZPirED
  • NigamKriti Jun 16 @ 10:56 PM EDT
    #INZpirED both are equally rewarding.Being leader requires more behavior modification by self & blend of leading by example and frm behind
    In reply to @rsehji
  • rsehji - Moderator Jun 16 @ 10:56 PM EDT
    @JKatzaman will be able to answer that, his question. A.3 Personally, being a teacher and enable my Ss to the lead learning is key #INZPirED

    #INZPirED A1 leadership is also a teaching learning experience...every T a leader in her/ his way .they are as influencial as the leader
  • rsehji - Moderator Jun 16 @ 11:01 PM EDT
    Would being a leader would imply that one "walks the talk" at all times and has expertise in the subject or area? #INZPirED
    In reply to @NigamKriti

    No, we're barely halfway through, and it's easy to catch up. #INZPirEd

    #INZPirED A2 working with Ss is simple straightforward...with adults....you need to be in your guard at times

  • ApraRalli Jun 16 @ 11:07 PM EDT
    #INZPirED A3. I'd want to be both.A T & a leader so I'd be able to see things from both the sides & Teach like a leader & lead like a T.
  • mrterborg Jun 16 @ 11:07 PM EDT
    Nope. Nor do they think at the same pace. Need to allow time for slower thinkers/learners. It may drive others nuts.They learn too #INZPirED
