Three Dimensional Teaching: Teaching in the Digital Age

I am often asked if I can teach anyone to fly. I believe I could teach everyone to fly, but not everyone can learn to land. That takes more skill, effort and ability to think three dimensionally. So it is with teaching. Teaching is more than just passing on knowledge: it includes understanding of learning theories, how students learn and what tools and technology is available, familiar and practical for your subject matter. Flying an airplane is not like driving a car. It involves a different type of thinking Three Dimensional Thinking . I go beyond teaching procedures that make an airplane fly, and teach the fundamentals of how to fly. Teaching is more than just learning the material and then reciting it to students. What advantage is hat over just googling the topic of interest? What value do I as an instructor add?

Flying is very much an Experiential Learning activity, and I believe any subject can be taught using the same principles, with case studies, hands-on activities and real-world examples
