The Teacher Report: Death of the Worksheet - WeAreTeachers:


 "Think back to your school days.  Do you remember groaning as your teacher passed out worksheets?  Grudgingly filling in the answers half-heartedly without engaging any of your critical thinking or problem solving skills?  We all remember times like that.  Fortunately, slowly but surely, worksheets are slowly disappearing from classrooms everywhere.  That's not to say that the occasional worksheet is detrimental to student learning—it's not—but simply that there are much more effective ways to teach.  And with 21st century technology—and 21st century curriculum—teachers are finally able to replace worksheets with creative and innovative methods."
