This reading is American and 9 years old. New Zealand teachers have these types of conversations with students metacognitively, so this reading is often an affirmation of what good teachers and practices we have here. The last section highlights 6 attributes of a good facilitator. As stated in the reading, in the 1990's there was a move away from teacher centred, teacher directed classrooms, to learner centred classrooms. Teachers have become facilitators of learning. The 6 attributes refer to good teaching practice with ICT being seamlessly integrated, using the right tool for the job. Sometimes ICT may not be the best tool for the job.
