José Picardo is "a modern languages teacher at Nottingham High School, where I have just been appointed Head of Modern Foreign Languages, and I believe fervently in making education compatible with the needs and expectations of our students through the effective use of technology."

I teach, therefore you learn… or do you?
José talks about the video on his blog Box of Tricks:

"If you search 21st century skills on YouTube, more than 1700 videos come up. There is a mind boggling wealth and variety of resources on this topic on sites like YouTube or Slideshare.So why make another video or another set of slides on how pupils are changing faster than teachers can keep up? Well, I wanted to make it personal: this is a video that I made to show my colleagues at work. I hoped that the fact that I made the video would make them realise that this concept doesn’t only live in YouTube or Slideshare and that this is a concept worth examining and reflecting upon.In it, I explore my own understanding of what it means to teach and learn today and I invite those who watch it to share their thoughts and opinions."
