21st century teacher topic 3

Inquiry and problem based learning I believe is one of this most significant challenges that I will face as a 21st century educator. I understand the importance of critical thinkers and helping students seek knowledge to solve 21st century problems, however as time pressures continue to grow personally, I'm not sure that time will permit for the development of these awesome program's. The geography activity by Collins 'supporting location based inquiry learning across schools, field any home contexts' I thought was great and I started to get ahead of myself thinking that I could do this type of activity tomorrow. As I continued I was then brought back to reality as an activity like this takes time and collaboration. I also wondered about the ability of the student at my school and realised that I would have to spend a considerable amount of time preparing them for such an activity. Also, will i be able to meet all of the outcomes for the current unit of work with such an activity. i think this anxious feeling will subside as i look further into this and become more familiar with how to develop and implement pal activities.
