Teaching is one of the more demanding jobs one might have. Some days, everything goes smoothly, and it seems so pleasant. Other days can be very challenging filled with negative interactions, and challenging, somewhat dangerous situations.

EdRoboTech.com is a construct and an idea created by

Edward Robinson in 2014, surrounding Educational Technology and Online

Learning. While completing his Master's Degree in Educational Technology and

Online Learning, Edward began to connect the relationships between Education,

Technology, and the Virtual World.

Teachers may want to hear from other teachers and successful people in education who are accomplishing much in a variety of fields of endeavor. What do you want to see in terms of venues of communication and collaboration among teachers?

A School Is A Dangerous Place. What do you do when one of the learners you protect, on a given school day, current student, comes in with a weapon, attempting to do damage to other students, teachers, or staff? What do you do when one of your former students comes back with a weapon, determined to shoot and kill students, teachers, or staff? We discuss it here...

Have you ever felt that something needed to change, but then realized that you

were just one person? And, after all, what can one person do to improve the

situation, right?

But, what if you were talking about improving Educational outcomes. And, you

decided to teach to improve outcomes. Oh, yes, but you are only one person.

What can you possibly do to improve Education?

I contend that Education as a construct, benefits from Technology as a

construct. I feel that simply teaching and learning the same way that it had

always been done, needed a change.

Since most of us have had some educational experiences we all feel that we are

experts in Education. We have some successes and perhaps failures to point to,

that make us know something about the educational experience.

One thing that I had to consider as a Teacher, is that I was also a parent. I

needed to get good deals on many supplies for my family, as well as create and provide a suitable classroom environment for the many students that came through my classroom every day.

Depending on the Teaching job you have, and how long you have been successfully

working as a Teacher, you might spend summer vacation in a bunch of ways:

We used to say as children:

"Sticks and stones, may break my bones but names will never hurt me".; but in truth both the names and the stones hurt, and did damage. We live in a day, and a time, where both literal stones, and despicable names are being thrown around at each other, as if, we never learned childhood lessons of basic proper behavior.

Teachers are entering politics, and collectively bargaining for their own

livelihoods, putting skin in the game, putting shoe leather to the ground to make the change that we need today.
