"Teacher, you´re not the Master! And student you´re not stupid!"

Real teaching is to not underestimate learners intelligence by believing you´re the "Master"! It´s been an immense pleasure to read Prof.Manzur´s article. Personally, because he talks about everything I´ve always believed all my life and even deeply suffered from the facts he points out. I´ve had serious arguments with teachers at school and professors at college for that kind of old\traditional teaching mindset. 
I do believe that the richest thing we have in life is people and as we learn through brain connections, I strongly believe that BRAINS connections are even stronger and more powerful. It´s like if we could extend our individual dendrites and axons out of our physical skulls and have a united "CPU" (Central Processing Unit) for whatever we need: learning something, living, helping each other.
Prof.Manzur not only talks about that on his article, but proves it. He starts by sharing his experience when he learned the importance of peer-learning, by serendipidity and it led him to a broader view of classroom-teaching-learning style change.
His articles relates to Zull´s chapter 6, Thom´s story as it deals to Zull´s momentaneous inability to reach out his students and really teach his lesson, due to an old, traditional, non-efficient teaching style method.
I´ve also really liked the video where the presenter had the classroom with round tables. I´ve already had a chance to experience that and it´s really amazing. It does make all the difference. As from a teacher´s perspective, I´d really enjoy having my Flex groups into classrooms like that. Let´s have kids classroom style for all our groups! 
I keep telling my students that we teachers are not the masters of the universe, we don´t know everything... and that our role there is to serve as bridges to help them reach their goals. 
I like people, CONNECTIONS and do hope educators all over the world can ,one day, understand Manzur´s concept and put it into practice. 

Quick tip: try watching a TV serie called "Sense8". It´s on its 1st season ! ;)
