Description

Interactive teaching and learning is transforming pedagogy in countries around the world. Traditional perspectives of "teacher" and "learner" have been challenged, and new approaches to adult education are emerging in a culture of democracy. The concept of teacher as facilitator has taken precedence over the concept of teacher as the bearer of wisdom or unquestioned source of knowledge. The role of the student in the learning process has changed from passive learner to that of active participant, critical thinker, and processor of information. Within this perspective, teacher and learner are co-constructors of knowledge, engaging in a process that values choice, individualism, collaboration, creativity, equality, and respect for differences. This article describes the process of introducing interactive pedagogy in countries making the transition to democracy through education reform. The article is based on the authors' experiences as facilitators and learners during an international teacher education seminar in the Republic of Georgia. The seminar was part of an initiative, funded by the Soros Foundations Networks, called the Step by Step Higher Education Initiative.
