This teacher tells an interesting story that surprised her. All teachers want to engage their students. We have many tech tools these days that can do this quite effectively. But how about being inspired? The author says that the role of teachers have changed from the "sage on the stage" to the "guide on the side." With various tools and many instructional leaders providing curriculum and guidance, we teachers have to be the caring human touch in the process and enjoy what we do.

We can all learn from this, laryngitis or not.
